Senators Sign On To Marijuana
Bill WASHINGTON -- Vermont's Sens. Patrick Leahy and James Jeffords have signed on as co-sponsors of a medical marijuana bill introduced by Illinois Democrat Richard Durban. Like the House version of the bill, the Senate Truth in Trials Act would end the federal government's gag on medical marijuana defendants in court, according to the Marijuana Policy Project. By providing an affirmative defense to federal marijuana charges, it would not only ensure that defendants could introduce evidence about the medical aspects of their marijuana-related activities, but also keep them from being sent to federal prison if it is determined that they were acting in compliance with state medical marijuana laws. |
