    This reported decision is a direct attack on patients. Parents should be able to give their kids the medicine they need without fear of prosecution. Veterans should be able to come home from combat and use the medicine they need without fear of prosecution.https://twitter.com/AP/status/948912543363411968 …

        This is about public health. You can join me in fighting back by calling for support for my bill, the CARERS Act, which keeps the federal government out of the way when doctors and patients decide that medical marijuana is the best treatment for them.

        Work we have in @Health_Affairs (http://bit.ly/2B1WT5f  ) => since medical cannabis saves STATE Medicaid dollars, states now have standing to sue the DoJ to enforce the CSA as written - which would require rescheduling cannabis, since NAS finds "conclusive evidence" of benefit.

        There’s no down side in coming out in full support of legalized marijuana, medical and recreational. You can be a leader on this.

        It's just more proof of this administration punishing the people who don't support them, since mostly it's democratic states that have made it legal. This is the sickest administration ever.

        It’s not just about public health. People have a right to consume marijuana for recreational purposes as well. It is not a dangerous drug and has been mischaracterized as such for way too long. Your message is an obvious attempt to straddle a line and it’s silly.

        Silly? Let's try one step at a time. Remember that it's only a heartbeat from legalizing medical marijuana to recreational marijuana. And it's way more important that Congress get on board with helping the people who need it not just want it.

        If “top” GOP members held land to grow on, it would be legal already.

        The stupidity, willful ignorance and desire to take America back to prohibition era policies is staggering. Meanwhile, advanced nations like Canada, are legalizing marijuana nationwide as of July 2018. The idiocy is palpable even up here. PS - California should secede.
