The US Supreme Court refuses two states' suit against Colorado's legal cannabis

Nebraska and Oklahoma asked the Supreme Court, which hears disputes between states directly, to strike down Colorado's recreational marijuana law, saying cannabis bought legally in Colorado was flowing into their states and straining their police and courts. The Court denied them leave to file the complaint without giving reasons. Justice Thomas, joined by Justice Alito, dissented.[1]
