SACRAMENTO, Calif.—The California Coalition Against Drugs has been a strong advocate against the legalization of commercial marijuana. In a press release on March 22, the organization voiced its concern about the possible reintroduction of the States Act.

The States Act, also known as S.B. 3032 and H.R. 6043, was introduced in last year’s 115th Congress. The States Act was an attempt to eliminate all federal regulations on marijuana and to amend the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), which would remove the production and sale of marijuana from the federal controlled substances list in states where marijuana is already legalized.
