From a posting by NORML
On July 12, 1994, the Alameda County, CA Board of Supervisors passed a resolution urging the California state legislature to pass -- and the Governor to sign -- Senate Bill 1364 which would reclassify marijuana from a Schedule I to a Schedule II substance, thereby making it available for use by prescription.
Alameda County joins almost a dozen other locales in California as going on record as favoring legal medical access to marijuana.
