WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 (UPI) -- A push by Rep. Andy Harris, R-Md., to block Washington, D.C.'s decriminalization of recreational marijuana as part of the government's spending bill has some residents angry.
The district in November voted to legalize marijuana, allowing adults to to possess up to two ounces of marijuana, grow up to six plants and give marijuana to other adults. The ballot initiative 71 had more than 70 percent support.
