Description

The EPA recently disappointed many pot growers in states where the drug has been legalized. It reversed course from the Obama administration and refused to approve any pesticides for use on marijuana plants. Why did Pruitt's EPA change the administration's stance on this issue? Was it because he thinks smoking weed is morally wrong? Not necessarily, says Bloomberg BNA's Tiffany Stecker. She tells us that Pruitt may have also been listening to the agency's lawyers.
