The program shields card-holders caught with the drug from local prosecution - though marijuana possession remains illegal under federal law. -'This represents another stone in the foundation we're building to make people recognize that cannabis is a legitimate medicinal agent,'' said District Attorney Terence Hallinan. "I'm not really worried we won't be able to work things out with the federal government.- Californians voted to legalize marijuana for medical use in 1996, but the ballot measure they approved has been entangled in legal disputes ever since. The Office of National Drug Control Policy has long opposed medical marijuana initiatives, considering them backdoor routes to legalizing marijuana. Agency officials refused to comment on San Francisco's new ID program. In addition to California, measures approving the medical use of marijuana have passed in Alaska, Arizona, Hawaii, Maine, Nevada, Oregon and Washington state. while federal opposition to marijuana remains strong, there are signs that government arguments against states' medicinal marijuana measures may be weakening. A federal judge on Friday hinted he may be forced to allow an Oakland club to distribute medicinal marijuana because the Justice Department hasn't rebutted evidence that cannabis is the only effective treatment for a large group of seriously ill people. O.S. District Judge Charles R. Breyer of San Francisco said he would rule Monday in the complex case, which draws in the wider conflict between California's medical marijuana initiative and federal drug regulations. Jane Weirick, who uses marijuana to alleviate pain from a back ailment, said the city's ID cards will "finally give us legitimacy.'' '-I was taking prescription opiates and was stuck in bed all the time,'' she said. -'When I started taking cannabis, I was finally able to function. It was like night and day.'' Former state Attorney General Dan Lungren opposed any attempt to carry out the 1996 ballot measure and shut down most of the state's informal marijuana Subject: Smokable Marijuana Is Safe and Effective Medicine Date: Thu, 13 Jul 2000 11:46:47 -0700 From: Marijuana Policy Project <mpp@mpp.org> To: mppupdates@igc.topica.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JULY 13, 2000 THE SCIENTIFIC RESULTS ARE IN: Smokable Marijuana Is a Safe and Effective Medicine for People With AIDS DURBAN, SOUTH AFRICA Smoking marijuana helps people with AIDS gain weight, without causing adverse virologic effects, according to the results of a study released Thursday at the XIII International AIDS Conference. Dr. Donald Abrams, a world-renowned AIDS researcher at the University of California at San Francisco, has finally completed his study after *six years* of navigating federal obstacles. The study was originally designed as an "efficacy" study to focus on marijuana's medical benefits to people wasting away from AIDS. Because the National Institute on Drug Abuse has a stranglehold on the legal supply of marijuana for research purposes, the federal agency was able to force Dr. Abrams to change his research proposal into a "safety" study, focusing instead on the potential *negative* health effects of marijuana in people with AIDS. "The federal government manipulated the study design to increase the likelihood that the results would reveal that marijuana harms the immune system and doesn't boost the appetite," said Chuck Thomas, director of communications for the Washington, D.C.-based Marijuana Policy Project. "But the government's plan backfired smoking marijuana did not cause any immunological problems, while it increased caloric intake and weight gain." THE RESULTS REVEALED GREATER WEIGHT GAIN AMONG THE MARIJUANA- SMOKING PATIENTS THAN THE PLACEBO-USING CONTROL GROUP. "If the federal government would finally allow researchers to focus on marijuana's medical *benefits*, we could get natural marijuana approved by the FDA within a couple of years," said Thomas. "That's what the Clinton administration fears, and that's why they continue to make it more difficult for researchers to study medical marijuana than it is for pharmaceutical companies to study their synthetic compounds." (See http://www.mpp.org/guidelines for more details on the federal government's excessive restrictions on medical marijuana research and the growing coalition of medical groups, members of Congress, researchers, and celebrities who are calling for change.) "There are countless people across the nation smoking marijuana to treat AIDS-related nausea and appetite loss," said MPP's Chuck Thomas. "This study shows that they're not harming themselves or imagining their weight gain, and certainly they should not continue to be subject to arrest and imprisonment."
