D.C. Considers Marijuana Legalization

Councilman David Grosso will introduce the bill

Legalized pot in the nation's capital is no pipe dream.

D.C. councilman David Grosso plans to introduce legislation Sept. 17 that would legalize the recreational use of marijuana in the city — with a dance with Mary Jane possibly replacing the played-out Potomac two-step.

"If we're going to have alcohol legal in this country, I don't see any reason why we couldn't have marijuana legal," Grosso said — bluntly.
