KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A new law will change who enforces marijuana laws in Tennessee. WBIR-TV reports a law taking effect in January removes the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission from the Governor's Task Force on Marijuana Eradication. The push to remove the commission began in 2012, when WSMV-TV reported law enforcement discovered what they believed to be marijuana in the home of the commission's director.
