I hope you'll contact Reid and thank him for his support of medical marijuana and ask him to consider that the American people are, again, far ahead of Congress on this issue.

Let the people in states who want to develop new businesses related to all aspects of cannabis have the freedom to do so. After all, when this nation was founded, hemp was currency of a sort, and farmers were required to plant the same.
