Weed legalization could be up for approval in at least a dozen states this legislative session. But as advocates finalized signature counts and legislators return from their holiday breaks to consider pro-legalization bills, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions has announced his own plan to rollback state control of the legalization process, with the goal to “disrupt criminal organizations, tackle the growing drug crisis, and thwart violent crime across our country.”
It’s yet to be seen how Session’s decision will impact active legalization efforts, so here are five states to watch as the federal and state conflict thickens.
