Four more states legalized recreational marijuana use this November. But jubilation over marijuana's ballot wins was quickly tempered by the uncertain future marijuana faces under Trump Justice Department. “The prospect of Donald Trump as our next president concerns me deeply,” Ethan Nadelmann, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance, said in a statement. “His most likely appointees to senior law enforcement positions — Rudy Giuliani and Chris Christie — are no friends of marijuana reform, nor is his vice president.”

I've always said, if you want your vote to matter, know who and what you are voting for on a local level. If a wave of sates keep the momentum going of legalization on a local level, the federal level can't deny the people.

I think the majorly concerning aspect of this is that the DEA is currently under executive order from Obama not to pursue any prosecution against medicinal growers... I'm not sure if that order expires when Trump takes office but that's a scary prospect.
