Fmr. Gov. Chris Christie Tells New Jersey Caller He Has No Regrets over Not Legalizing Marijuana

Former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) on Washington Journal Primetime responds to a Republican New Jersey caller on why he refused to legalize marijuana during his tenure. The caller asks Christie why he is not in favor of legalization despite its benefits in treating certain medical conditions. Christie asks how medical marijuana has helped him, which the caller responds he did not qualify for the state's medical marijuana program that Christie approved. Christie then responds that the caller's conditions may not have been "too serious," and says, "I don't have one regret for not signing a bill to legalize marijuana in New Jersey." He adds, "I don't want people suffering from medical conditions needlessly, but I don't think having a headache every day is a reason for you to have marijuana. I don't think recreational use is correct."

Letter: Governor Sherrill, Please Opt New Jersey In Before The Deadline
