Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Caucus on International Narcotics Control, today made the following comment on the 2015 National Drug Control Strategy released today by the Office of National Drug Control Policy.
"The Administration has had some successes in reducing youth alcohol and tobacco use. But fighting illicit drug use is another story. The Administration's own policies toward marijuana enforcement are likely interfering with its ability to reach key goals on marijuana abuse and maybe drugged driving incidents. If the Administration truly wants to reach its drug control goals, it needs to reconsider its policies that undermine those goals."
