Representative Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA), one of the bill’s co-authors commented:
“THIS IS A VICTORY FOR SO MANY. THE FIRST TIME IN DECADES THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS CURTAILED ITS OPPRESSIVE PROHIBITION OF MARIJUANA”
On this historic move by Congress, Representative Sam Farr (D-CA) said:
“THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL FINALLY RESPECT THE DECISIONS MADE BY THE MAJORITY OF STATES THAT PASSED MEDICAL MARIJUANA LAWS. THIS IS A GREAT DAY FOR COMMON SENSE BECAUSE NOW OUR FEDERAL DOLLARS WILL BE SPENT MORE WISELY ON PROSECUTING CRIMINALS AND NOT SICK PATIENTS.”
