were voting overwhelmingly to legalize pot, a republican congressman named andy harris from the easternmaryland threatened that he will get congress to stop d.c. from implementing this new law. in 200 9, the city voted for same-sex marriage and then etwo congressmen introduced bills to block what d.c. decided to do. in 2011, republicans in congress blocked d.c.'s own locally decided, locally funded abortion policy. now they're doing it again. d.c. votes to legalize pot just as republicans sweep to power in the senate and expand their majority in the house. remember the whole republican mantra about local control getting the boot of federal government off our necks? butt out? this is the test. does the new republican majority in congress let d.c.'s new pot law stand or do they try to undo it? d.c. officials are going to have to accepted this to congress for a review very shortly. that will be another test of what this new washington is going to be like. today is day one. it's going to be fascinating.

when the andy harris amendment was passed, everybody in the house could vote on it except the member who represents the district of columbia, because i have no vote, even on matters affecting the district of columbia. the democrats controlled the house, i would have had a vote on amendments to appropriation bills because they occur in the committee of the whole, but even that was taken away. so every member got to vote on a matter affecting only my district except the one member that the district sends to the come ss and that is why i to the floor. we pay $12,000 per capita in federal income tax. eep that figure in mind. because that is the highest per capita figure in federal income . xes paid by any jurisdiction the lowest in federal taxes happens to be mississippi. i point out the difference because i think mississippi pays about $4,000 per capita. the district pays $12,000 per capita. so you can imagine if you support the federal government at this rate and you have no vote on the house floor and others have a vote that can take away your laws, you perhaps have every reason to be

point about andy harris and his interest in limiting -- >> who is he, by the way?> he is a congressman from maryland. his main point was having congress veto their initiative. a question in any law that d.c. passes. i think you'll face an uphill because for d.c. to veto this -- i think it is to be a tough task for mr. harris or anyone in congress. that 51% of hows respondents said yes to legalizing marijuana. 58% of those said yes, and 39% of the said no going back. to think those numbers are changing? >> i think the experience is certainly informing voters and informing other states. other states are looking towards colorado and washington to see what happens. to ates are generally scared move into new and innovative public policy areas. marijuana has risks. the legalization of the drug has risks with it. to think that no state wants be the state that screws it up. that you are right that people are being informed about this. colorado nothing in disaster -- i have written colorado being quite successful in its rollout to legalizing marijuana -- as people see that,
