A group of Democratic senators led by Chuck Schumer has introduced a new version of a bill that would decriminalize marijuana at the federal level.

Schumer, along with Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., unveiled a draft version of the bill just over a year ago.
The senators say the latest version of the bill will establish a federal regulator framework to protect public health and safety, prioritize restorative and economic justice, provide investments for cannabis research, and strengthen worker protections.
