What impact does the recent statement by the U.S. Attorney General regarding medical cannabis patients and their collectives have on our collective?
EHA applauds this further confirmation of the policy shift by the new administration and its legal managers of the Department of Justice. The impact is that state of California offices of U.S. Attorneys have been directed by their Washington D.C. bosses to focus on stopping illegal drug traffickers from growing or smuggling into California, controlled drugs to be sold on the black market to whoever is willing to pay them for it. U.S. attornies were told to honor the laws passed by the 14 states that have medical cannabis laws and patients and collectives who comply with those laws should not be harassed by Federal agents.
