That means technically its not even legal in AlaskaWashington if the federal government chose to enforce. Lisa Murkowski proposed a bill Wednesday that would allow cruise ships carrying more than 1000 passengers and bound for Alaska a permanent exemption from the Passenger Vessel Services Act. Cruise-ship passengers are banned from bringing marijuana aboard because pot remains illegal at the federal level and federal law governs cruise ships operating in American waters.
