May also wrestled with the issue of “cannabis clubs”. District residents had overwhelmingly voted in November 2014 to legalize the personal use of marijuana. But under federal law, landlords who received Section 8 money to provide subsidized or free housing to the poor could evict anyone who used marijuana in these homes. Members of the public attempted to establish “cannabis clubs”, where people could smoke marijuana away from the home. Fearful of a backlash in Congress, Mayor Bowser convinced the district council to enact emergency legislation in March 2015 temporarily banning cannabis clubs for 90 days. A majority of D.C. voters, and a majority of Ward 8 residents, backed the cannabis club concept. Bowser asked the council for extensions on the ban several times, and council complied.
