Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Endorses Medical Marijuana
U.S.'s Second Largest Cancer Charity Calls for Legal Access
as Vote
Looms in Congress
WASHINGTON, D.C.
July 17th 2007
Return
Back To Main Medical Reports Page
With a vote on medical marijuana looming in the
U.S. House of Representatives, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society has
adopted a formal policy position calling
for removal of criminal and
civil penalties for seriously ill patients using marijuana with their
doctor's recommendation. The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society is the
second largest cancer charity in the U.S., and the world's largest
voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer
research, education and patient
services.
As the House prepares to vote this month on an amendment to bar
Justice Department interference with state medical marijuana laws,
the society's resolution
cites federal interference with medical
marijuana research, the harm that can be done to seriously ill
patients by poor quality prison health care, and the wide support for
legal access to medical marijuana within the medical community. It
states, "The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society supports legislation to
remove criminal and civil sanctions
for the doctor-advised, medical
use of marijuana by patients with serious physical medical
conditions." The statement also calls for an end to federal
prosecutions of patients
in states that permit medical use of
marijuana.
"This should put to rest forever the lie that the medical and
scientific communities don't support medical marijuana," said
Aaron
Houston, director of government relations for the Marijuana Policy
Project in Washington, D.C. "As the House of Representatives prepares
to consider medical marijuana,
members need to ask themselves a
simple question: What is better for seriously ill patients, medical
marijuana or jail? There is no medical organization anywhere that
believes
jailing the sick is good for them, and yet that is precisely
what federal policy does."
Digg this!! http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vZGlnZy5jb20vaGVhbHRoL0xldWtlbWlhX2FuZF9MeW1waG9tYV9Tb2NpZXR5X0VuZG9yc2VzX01lZGljYWxfTWFyaWp1YW5h
CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE!
Tell them about the new resolution just passed by the Leukemia and
Lymphoma Society and be sure to remind them to vote in favor of the
medical marijuana amendment (Rep. Maurice Hinchey's [HIN-chee's]
medical marijuana amendment to the Justice Department's spending
bill) that the U.S. House of Representatives
will be voting on next
week. Even if you already contacted them when we sent our last alert,
this is a new development and a great excuse to remind them that 78%
of Americans
support the safe access to medical marijuana for
terminally ill patients.
It's easy: Just call the Capitol switchboard operator at (202)
224-3121. Give the operator your zip code and
ask to be connected to
your U.S. House member; you don't even need to know your congressperson's name to do this.
Calling and e-mailing take only one minute each.
