Senate Joint Resolution 14 urges the federal government to end medical cannabis raids in California and to "create a comprehensive federal medical marijuana policy that ensures safe and legal access to any patient that would benefit from it." California Senator Mark Leno (D-SF) introduced this Americans for Safe Access sponsored resolution in support of our national policy agenda.
If adopted, SJR 14 will be a major milestone in the effort to change federal medical cannabis policies!
The resolution calls for (1) an end federal raids, intimidation, and interference with state medical cannabis laws, (2) policies and laws to encourage advanced clinical research trials into the therapeutic use of cannabis, (3) an affirmative defense to medical cannabis charges in federal court, and (4) a comprehensive federal medical cannabis policy that ensures safe and legal access for patients.
On July 15, the California Senate Health Committee voted 7-3 in favor of SJR 14.
We have only a short time to get this resolution adopted this year. Please visit our online action center today to urge your California state senator to support support Senator Leno’s SJR 14.
