CARERS Act: let states legalize medical marijuana without federal interference.
Drug Policy Alliance
The CARERS Act is a bipartisan bill introduced today that will let states legalize medical marijuana without federal interference.
It will expand research into the health benefits of marijuana.
It will allow Veterans Affairs doctors to recommend marijuana to ailing veterans.
It will completely legalize high CBD strains of marijuana for medical treatment nationwide.
It will reclassify marijuana as schedule 2, admitting to the world that marijuana does in fact have medical benefits.
And it will allow banks to legally provide financial services to marijuana businesses.
This is a bill worth fighting for. Send a message to your Senators now. Tell them to cosponsor the CARERS Act!
Last year, you helped us pass a groundbreaking amendment in the U.S. House banning the Justice Department from interfering with state medical marijuana laws. But the amendment expires soon, making the CARERS Act our best chance ever to end the federal war on medical marijuana.
