- description: After gaining some momentum and media attention, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's proposed bill to decriminalize the possession of small amounts of marijuana was killed by the senate. And in a surprising reverse of circumstances, nearby New Jersey's assembly approved a similar marijuana decriminalization bill, but Governor Chris Christie vetoed it. His reasoning? As long as marijuana possession is a federal crime, states should leave the issue alone. Jon Stewart had a few questions about Christie's logic. Namely, how it could be okay to circumvent federal policy for something like sports gambling, but then adhere to it for marijuana possession.
