(I-Newswire) September 30, 2009 -
OAKLAND, CA (September 30, 2009) – MediCann, Inc., the largest group of medical marijuana clinics in the nation, supports Senator Mark Leno’s (D-San Francisco) ASA-sponsored resolution to harmonize federal and state medical marijuana laws and to adopt policies that promote cannabinoid research for medicinal purposes. The California State Senate has approved the resolution and it now moves on to the Assembly Committee on Health.

Part of the resolution urges lawmakers to lift the federal ban on cannabinoid research. This will in turn support the work of organizations like MediCann, Inc. whose clinical research trials focus on safe and therapeutic alternative wellness options. “This is a very significant moment for medical marijuana researchers, advocates and patients,” says Matthew Desanto, spokesman for MediCann, Inc. “If this resolution passes, [url:http://www.medicannusa.com/]MediCann[/url] will have more license to explore the numerous health benefits of medicinal cannabinoids, including the use of a topical application. SJR 14 paves the way for increased research and eventually more varied healthcare options for patients throughout the country.”

Founded in 2004 by Dr. Jean Talleyrand, MediCann, Inc., is dedicated to providing safe, legal and affordable access to healthcare services. With over 150,000 patients seen, it is the largest provider of medical marijuana evaluations in the state of California.
