From “A federal about-face on medical marijuana” in today’s Los Angeles Times:

Steph Sherer, executive director of Americans for Safe Access, called the new guidelines an important step toward a comprehensive national policy on medical marijuana because they will allow states to implement their own laws without interference from the federal government.

“This is a huge victory for medical-marijuana patients,” said Sherer, whose group plays a leading role in nationwide medical-marijuana advocacy. “This indicates that President Obama intends to keep his promise … and represents a significant departure from the policies of the Bush administration.”
