Blackmail of Teens Drives Licenses Bill Heads to Senate
In a 56-7 Assembly vote, a bill to suspend licenses of 16 and 17 year old drivers and passengers convicted of possessing marijuana drew charges of blackmail, with opponents warning it would not curb teen drug use. The measure ties to court rulings and targets narcotics offenses by juveniles, while another bill would convert 1961-68 marijuana possession felonies to misdemeanors for parolees.
