Worthy cause

Last October Americans for Safe access filed a petition with the US Department of Health and Human Services asking it to reschedule marijuana to reflect it's accepted use as a medicine. Currently it's a Schedule One drug meaning the government treats it as a substance with no known medical value.

Unsurprisingly, HHS is stalling on the petition but you can help ASA turn up the heat and compel HHS to take the issue under timely consideration. ASA needs to collect 100,000 signatures on paper petitions to submit to the agency by the end of March. You can download the petition here and collect signatures for them. Give it a whirl kids, there's even prizes.
