Vermont -- It is true, as some have argued, that the need to free up the courts and police time from having to process small marijuana possession cases is not urgent. Therefore, that is no reason to alter the state penalties for possession of small amounts of the drug or possession of a small number of marijuana plants. However, that doesn't mean there are no good reasons for changing the law, which is now under consideration in the Vermont Legislature.

Manchester, NH -- The rare form of muscular dystrophy Clayton Holton suffers from has chipped away at his body to the point where he weighs 80 pounds even though he's 6 feet, 2 inches tall. Clayton has been in a wheelchair since he was 10. His disease, Duchenne's syndrome, has robbed him of his ability to walk, shriveled his arms to the size and shape of a baseball bat handle, and burrowed a 6-inch crater in the center of his chest.

San Francisco, CA -- Medical marijuana in San Francisco may be going up in smoke. In late December, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration sent letters to landlords of buildings that housed medical cannabis dispensaries in the city, telling them they face the loss of their property and possibly prison if the businesses stay open.
