“We didn’t plan on getting arrested today — we brought 1,227 joints to represent the cannabis reform bill H.R. 1227 — and gave away a few hundred to congressional staffers before Capitol Police took it all away,” DCMJ Founder Nikolas Schiller told Fox News. “This was meant to be a free speech event and was meant to influence members of Congress.”
