B- Joe Kaufman (R - FL) DECRIMINALIZE
Comments

After years of seeing my mother suffer from Multiple Sclerosis and the horrible reactions she has had to painkillers, I have become a proponent of medical marijuana. If there are safer alternatives to addictive and dangerous prescription drugs, then we need to explore those options. 10/24/18

"Should we treat marijuana like many other addictive drugs, both as a medicine and as a narcotic? 

I say, we should.  Let’s treat it the way we treat barbiturates and opiates, as controlled substances, used for medical purposes only.

I recommend that we impose a tax on medical marijuana earmarked specifically for drug rehabilitation purposes." Link
