House unit skirty proposal to ease U.S. pot penalty
The Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control declined to adopt a Carter administration recommendation to decriminalize small marijuana possession. No conclusions were reached on reducing penalties. civil fines up to 100 dollars were proposed as an alternative to current penalties of up to one year in prison and five thousand dollars in fines. Senate action may come via a Birch Bayh amendment during a Drug Enforcement Administration extension debate.
