Contributing sentiments towards policy:

40% : "My colleagues across the aisle are using this partisan package as a roundabout way of legalizing marijuana without having any meaningful debate about its classification as a Schedule 1 drug or the effects that the drug has on Americans' health."

38% : "An appropriations package is quite simply not the place for a debate on the legalization of or looser restrictions for marijuana," Lesko argued.
