The change successfully protected California dispensaries from being raided by the feds.It was specifically regarding medicinal usage, unfortunately.
Bills like this Washington one don't fare well. There is immense pressure from the biggest of lobbies(pharmacutical, prison, tobacco, among others) that tends to overtake a lot of legislators.
I think the way it will happen is a California ballot proposition. Once that goes through, and the resulting Fed vs. State rights battle is settled, the more liberal states will all fall like dominos.
