Federal prosecutors not to target medical marijuana users and distributors

By Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Obama administration will not seek to arrest medical marijuana users and suppliers as long as they closely conform to state laws.

...Two department officials described the new policy to The Associated Press, saying federal prosecutors will be told it is not a good use of their time to arrest people who use or provide medical marijuana in compliance with state laws."

 

NORML reports that the states where medical hemp is legal is where you can light up with a doctor's note.

Alaska | California | Colorado | Hawaii | Maine | Maryland | Michigan | Montana | Nevada | New Mexico | Oregon | Rhode Island | Vermont | Washington 

The ceiling is shattered. Hemp's about to be legal because it's not a good use of the justice department's time.  

Remember, the biggest difference between the US and China's economies is hemp is already legal in China.  For more on the economics of hemp come on by the USA Hemp Museum and check out Volume 5 - HEMP FOR VICTORY: THE TRILLION DOLLAR CROP

Hemp Testimony Call To Action

The USA Hemp Museum is urging all hempsters to support all constructive calls to action regarding hemp legalization and empowerment.

One such call is from the great American Hemp Hero Willie Nelson and his Peace Research Institute crew. They've issued a call to action to help folks in Hawaii get access to medical hemp by requesting testimony from folks who have benefitted from hemp use in healing.

Below is the text. Please, transform from call into action. Copy your elected and appointed officials on your email, either with their email address or their on line forms to get your testimony heard.

Now is the time to speak up about hemp and all it can do to help us save ourselves.

In the words of the great author Peter McWilliams, DO IT!!!

This is big!

It's an opportunity to offer your testimony to hemp's healing effects in your life and the lives of those you know.
