Sessions also said he echoes the position former attorney general Loretta Lynch took during her confirmation hearings. Lynch said then she did not support the legalization of marijuana and that it would not be the position of her justice department to do so.

You're looking for consistency in Trump's words and actions?
You can only go by the most recent thing he's said. The guy sometimes contradicts himself in the same sentence, spare me.

legal at state level gives people freedom from prosecution but that is about it.
dispensaries can still be raided and people can still lose their jobs for taking their medicine
How many dispensaries in Colorado have been raided since 4/20/2014?
You.
Are.
Wrong.
Stop fear mongering.

I posted sources, more than one. Feel free to have a look for yourself. Or just keep saying it's not true, we're in the post-truth era after all.
icensed medical marijuana dispensaries in the 23 states where medicinal cannabis is legal and Washington DC are operating in a tricky gray zone. On one hand, the states recognize cannabis as a legal medical substance. On the other, cannabis is listed under the federal Controlled Substances Act as a drug with “no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse”. As such, small, legal dispensaries can be wiped out by a single visit from law enforcement. “Under federal law – whether medical or not – it’s contraband,” says Lowry.
argue it as much as you want. the raids have happened before and they will happen again.

Don't forget to cite a source for your claim that Sessions supported the death penalty for marijuana convictions.
We all know it's crap.

There hasn't been a single raid on one dispensary in a state that voted for recreational marijuana.
