In a shocking move, The United States House of Representatives voted to restrict the DEA's use of funds to prosecute medicinal marijuana operations that are legal under state laws. Read the story here at Huffington Post.
I applaud this move, but have several questions about the change in tone from the government on this issue. What will it mean going forward for the legalization of medicinal marijuana? Will the federal government change the classification of marijuana? Will this encourage more states to pass pro-medicinal pot laws? We shall see in the coming weeks if the federal government will change it's stance on marijuana in a more meaningful way.
