    (1/4) Earlier this week, I testified before the Senate Caucus on International Narcotics Control on #marijuana use and the developing brain. This Sunday, I’m shining a light on the harms it can pose. More via @FreeBeacon: https://freebeacon.com/issues/surgeon-general-weed-legalization-a-massive-public-health-experiment/ … #SundayThoughts

        (2/4) In August, I issued an advisory on the subject. This was in response to alarming rates of #marijuana use among pregnant women and young people, and widespread and ⬆️ access to increasingly potent marijuana.https://bit.ly/2WhsQys

        (3/4) The harms are real: Impaired attention, memory, and learning for youth, and babies being born at lower weights – a risk factor for death in the child’s first year of life.

        (4/4) The bottom line is a simple one that I hope we can all agree on: No youth or pregnant women should use #marijuana. It’s not safe. Learn more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYZvUDbzUk8 …pic.twitter.com/wpQbptMDB5

        Obviously not advocating for kids to be smoking marijuana, but is this really the most important issue for our "top doctor" to be tackling right now? Opioid overdose and suicide rates are so high that they've literally driven the median lifespan down.

        I think there is a capacity to re ire and disseminate info on multiple topics at once. Sort of like walking and chewing gum

        Legalize #marijuana to regulate it and obtain tax revenue. In #Florida some of the #cannabis sold on the street is laced with drugs to get users hooked on stronger stuff and generate future revenues. This practice should end.

        Americans have been smoking pot for decades... how about the harms of ALCOHOL? Far more devastating that the effects of marijuana. Please shine a light on the scourge of the effects of alcoholism. #LegalizeIt #cancersurvivor #MedicalCannabis

        The big problem is public health is incentivized to take money from companies to study the benefits of marijuana as marketing material, rather than study regulatory issues to protect the public! @JAMA_currenthttps://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/2734209 …
