    12-year-old suing Sessions over marijuana policy

    A 12-year-old girl in Colorado is suing Attorney General Jeff Sessions over what the lawsuit claims is an unconstitutional federal prohibition on medical marijuana.

    Alexis Bortell, who uses a strain of cannabis oil called Haleigh's Hope to keep seizures at bay, told Fox 31 in Denver that she hopes the lawsuit will at least normalize medical marijuana. Her best hope, she said, is that it will legalize it nationwide.

    Good luck to her. Pretty great.

    I thought weed was legal in CO?

    Did sessions ban that oil or something?

    Was this oil legal, and Sessions banned it?

    the whole thing confuses me.

    She's going after federal regulation.

    It certainly isn't schedule one, by the very definition of "schedule 1".

    But why sue sessions personally? What did he have to do with it? Why not sue the Justice department?
