AG Ferguson prepares to fight feds over marijuanna
As they wait for Holder to reveal how he will handle their marijuana laws, state officials in Colorado and Washington could also be preparing to do battle with the feds. Tyler would not say whether the attorney general’s office in Colorado is preparing to fight federal lawsuits.
“That’s just not something that I’m going to discuss,” Tyler said.
Attorney General Ferguson, on the other hand, said he’s readying to fight federal lawyers and said he made this clear to Holder during their meeting.
“I conveyed to him that we wished to avoid a legal fight, but that my office would be ready for litigation if that’s the direction the federal government chooses to go,” said Ferguson.
