Congress ends federal ban on medical marijuana and protects industrial hemp cultivation

Congress ends federal ban on medical marijuana and protects industrial hemp cultivation



 The Justice Department no longer has the funds to raid medical marijuana establishments.

Not long ago, it seemed the movement to legalize marijuana was never going to gain traction. The federal government was eager to override any state law that legalized its use, for any reason. It seemed the only push behind legalization was the positive press for marijuana's role in treatment of glaucoma and its use to treat nausea caused by chemotherapy. That was not enough to keep the feds from pushing back as they closed down medical marijuana operations across California.

As the years have gone by, stories continue to emerge about the healing properties of cannabis oil. It is said to heal many conditions (migraines, seizures, persistent pain, nausea, lack of appetite, etc.), but its primary claim to fame is its ability to heal cancer - skin cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, brain cancer. Just take a quick look at the Internet and read the stories.

*Mike Cutler, 63, cured of liver cancer. (Pain disappeared after 3 day's use).

*Michelle Aldrich, stage 3 lung cancer. Shrunk tumor by 50% in 4 months and she had the rest surgically removed. No sign of cancer.

*Andy Ashcraft, dying from pleural mesothelioma, now recovered.

*Baby with an inoperable brain tumor, terminal. Completely cured.

Last weekend, the bipartisan Rohrabacher-Farr medical marijuana amendment was included in the omnibus spending bill. The purpose of the amendment was to stop the Justice Department from overriding state medical marijuana laws. It states:

"None of the funds made available in this Act to the Department of Justice may be used...to prevent such States from implementing their own State laws that authorize the use, distribution, possession, or cultivation of medical marijuana."

It also... drumroll please...protected industrial hemp cultivation through the Agricultural Act of 2014.

Medical marijuana laws now exist in 20 states and the fight continues in the states that have not yet passed sane legislation. Relieving the pressure from the federal government should help.

Is it possible we have voted for some rational, logical, reasonable legislators?
