Group to hand out free marijuana during President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration

WASHINGTON D.C. -- If you needed another reason to attend Inauguration Day in Washington D.C., how about free marijuana.

The D.C. Cannabis Coalition says it will hand out thousands of free joints during President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration on Jan. 20.

Recreational marijuana is legal in D.C, but the group is hoping to legalize it at the federal level.
