Push to Legalize Marijuana Gains Ground in California
State lawmakers are holding a hearing on Wednesday on the effects of a bill that would legalize, tax and regulate the drug — in what would be the first such law in the United States. Tax officials estimate the legislation could bring the struggling state about $1.4 billion a year, and though the bill’s fate in the Legislature is uncertain, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, a Republican, has indicated he would be open to a “robust debate” on the issue.

政府立法者在星期三舉行聽證會，這將影響議案中的稅收和整治藥品的合法化----它將會成為美國第一個此類藥品稅收法律。Tax officials estimate the legislation could bring the struggling state about $1.4 billion a year, and though the bill’s fate in the Legislature is uncertain, Gov. ArnoldSchwarzenegger, a Republican, has indicated he would be open to a “robust debate” on the issue.
稅務官員估計法律的制定可能帶來有爭議的情況，其關乎到14億美元一年的稅收，盡管議案的最終結果在立法議會里還不能確定，共和黨的加州州長施瓦辛格表示，在這個問題上，將開放一個“強有力的辯論” 。
