US congressman Barney Frank has submitted a bill to Congress to decriminalize possession of small amounts of cannabis. It would eliminate all penalties for possession of under 100 grams of marijuana, and make the fine for public smoking $100.
Let's hope this bill goes somewhere. I'm not sure how this affects state laws which for the most part are more restrictive. I assume it would supercede them and require states to change their laws to match the feds.
