I GOT THIS EMAIL IN LESS THAN 24 HRS AFTER SENDING LETTER TO HIM:




Dear Mr. Libert,



Thank you for allowing me to listen to your support for the use of medical marijuana. I appreciate your taking time to share your views with me.



As a physician and a researcher, I have done extensive research on the impacts of marijuana. Twenty-six years ago, during my training as an allergy and asthma specialist, my colleagues and I studied marijuana at the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee. We found that all marijuana leaves were contaminated with inhalable molds, and most importantly, these disease-causing molds survived the smoking process. In fact, we never found any marijuana samples that were not contaminated with fungi capable of inducing either asthma attacks or even death from overwhelming fungal infections in immune-suppressed patients.



For this reason, I did not support the Hinchey medical marijuana amendment to H.R. 3093, the Commerce, Justice, and Science Appropriations Act for FY2008, which failed to win approval.



Thank you again for sharing your concerns with me. By working together, we will build a better future for everyone.

Sincerely,

Steve Kagen, MD
Member of Congress
