Legalization of Medical Marijuana in Virginia
We, the people who sign this Petition, are asking the Government of Virginia to legalize Marijuana for Medical purposes only.
Why is this important?
Marijuana has been legalized in 20 States. It's proven to be a good, if not "great" medication to those in need. Several studies have been shown that Marijuana can treat everything from eye diseases, to restless leg syndrome, all the way to something as simple as insomnia. So, some people of Virginia are actually commiting crimes by having to illegally buy MEDICATION, to function and live a happy, ordinary life. When, in reality, the people of Virginia, should look into this drug and see how this could potentially un-crowd our jails and prisons as well as help some live a happy life in this great State. We should also look at the employment benefits, as well as how this could pontentially help our Government and debt by taxing the drug.
