Andrew Myers For Medical Marijuana
An effort is underway to legalize medical marijuana in Arizona through an initiative aiming for the 2010 ballot.
The measure, expected to hit the streets soon, would allow seriously ill patients to use marijuana with a doctor’s recommendation to treat symptoms such as nausea, loss of appetite, chronic pain and muscle spasms, said Andrew Myers, campaign manager for the Arizona Medical Marijuana Policy Project.
Andrew Myers said: marijuana has proven effective in helping to ease the suffering of people with cancer, AIDS and other conditions.
“If we are going to fight a war on marijuana, let’s at least take the sick and dying off the battlefield,” Myers said.
