Tillis Comes Out for the Business of Marijuana

 

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) told the Green Market Report, a pro-marijuana publication, that he supports creating a “comprehensive regulatory framework that treats marijuana just like tobacco,” arguing that “the federal government needs to figure out a safe way to allow this market to occur.”

That's actually solid conservative philosophy -- let the market govern.

But it again puts Tillis, who's already been censored by the NCGOP for suspiciously moderate views, waaay out there compared to his North Carolina brethren, who won't even enact a very strict joke of a medical marijuana law.

Sometimes Tillis just surprises us.
