Speaking at a press conference on Feb 25 with DEA Administrator Michele Leonhart, and reiterating a position made by the White House following DEA raids in California on February 4, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder told reporters that ending federal raids on medical marijuana dispensaries “is now American policy.” The Attorney General’s comments are the latest sign of a sea change in federal policy that prohibits the use of medical cannabis in the thirteen states that have enacted such laws.
This should free up police departments to take care of criminal matters instead of busting medical suppliers. It should also free up cities to take tax revenues from legal dispensaries, rather than banning those types of businesses.
Amen.
Wow! I agree with anonster? We must both be wrong!
Bout time!!
Thank God, maybe some sanity can be brought back now.
Now cities and counties need to end their prohibitions now.
im o k with this . MORE ILLEGAL ALIENS RAID IS WHAT WE NEED
Amazing. Seems to be an issue that Republicans and Democrats agree on for the most part.
Seriously, if My Doctor can write me a prescription for Heroin, Vicadin, Oxyconton and all kinds of other drugs, but some congressman, who does not have a clue about medicin, is going to tell him he can’t prescribe some pot? Really?
Stunning! Everyone here is in agreement?
I think that must be a first 😉
Lovin it!! With the cash we can get from taxing the pot we can build a sea wall around the state! You know man, the sea is rising cause of global warming! and those red necks are never going to quit using oil and coal!
Yeah Red, We must All be wrong
