If there is a federal ban, it would absolutely make state laws invalid. 
If there is a federal ban, it’s illegal everywhere. 
And yes they are going there. The only consistent ideology held by republicans is winning by any means. [/quote]

Genuine question. I am ignorant. If marijuana is illegal at the federal level, how can it be sold in states that are legal? Why wouldn’t abortion be the same?[/quote]

It is still illegal in all states, but the feds don’t have the enforcement resources to do after everyone so the current enforcement policy is leave state-legal dispensaries alone.  There have been prosecutions against state legal dispensaries though.  Feds could change their enforcement priorities whenever they want to.

Should have added, feds have a bunch of levers to shut down medical abortions.  Feds can threaten pharma companies that make abortion pills.  You can’t grow an abortion pill in your yard like marijuana.  They can also pull doctors DEA licenses.  There would still be abortions in back alleys that go unprosecuted, but that’s a bad situation.[/quote]
