Dear Mr. Olsen:
Thank you for your recent letter enclosing the most recent
status report on legislative and judiciary action relating
to the medical use of marijuana.
I now spend most of my time outside the boundaries of Iowa,
and actually live in Arizona. I'm simply not available for
participation on a local basis. I do support the medical
use of marijuana and sincerely hope some relief can be gained
from federal restrictions. This probably will require action
in the Congress rather than Iowa. I would suggest seeking
advice, if you already haven't, from your Congressional offices
as to how to proceed.
I wish you well.
Sincerely,
Harold E. Hughes
