…peyote… all…
The Navajo Nation Council is considering a measure that states the tribe is against the decriminalization of peyote… as states continue to decriminalize [and legalize] marijuana…
If the legislation passes, it would put the Navajo Nation firmly in opposition to any state decriminalizing the use of peyote. The measure would urge all states to limit the non-criminal use of peyote to religious, ceremonial and cultural purposes only, as it is stated in the American Indian Religious Freedom Act amendments of 1994.
