    This is a good step forward.

    We should have worker protections in place in legal states anyways. If guys driving tanks can smoke a joint then is in the construction field should be able to as well

      It’s absurd that employers in legalized states are allowed to fire/refuse to hire candidates/employees based on the contents of their urine/hair/other bodily substances when impairment on the job or illegal use isn’t in question. Federal legalization will hopefully put a nail in that coffin, at least for practical purposes.

        I hope it does. We have electricians onsite talking about doing coke because it’s out of your system relatively quick yet pot smokers get fucked ? It’s truly stupid that worker protections were never included in the bill.

        I’m from oregon and they messed that part of legalization up
