Presidential Candidate Chris Christie vows crackdown on recreational marijuana

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has a message for people in states that have legalized recreational marijuana use: Enjoy it while you can.

“You take an oath of office,” Mr. Christie, a 2016 Republican presidential candidate, said on “Fox and Friends.” “I take one as governor; I will take one as president that says that you’ll enforce the laws — not just enforce the laws you like. You’ll enforce the laws. And marijuana is against the law in the United States and it should be enforced in all 50 states.

“The same way there are folks out there who don’t like sanctuary cities, and I agree with that — I don’t think we should have sanctuary cities, either,” he continued. “Yet the federal government’s not enforcing the immigration law in those cities. There’s becoming an ethic in this administration that they only enforce the laws that they like.”
