Republican Rep. Ron Paul and Democratic Rep. Barney Frank are teaming up to introduce a bill on Thursday that would legalize marijuana. It would be the first legislation designed to end the federal ban on weed, according to the AFP. Paul, who is running for president, has long advocated that the war on drugs wastes government money and that the current laws infringe on personal freedoms. The bill would give states the power to allow growing, selling and smoking the drug.
