MediSwipe Inc. Announces Opinion on New Proposed Federal Legislation Regarding Medicinal Marijuana States and Provides Michigan
15 4월 2013 - 10:16PM
MediSwipe Inc. (www.MediSwipe.com) (OTCBB:MWIP), a patient security
solutions and financial products company for the medicinal
marijuana and health care industry, today announced information and
a corporate opinion regarding a bill introduced in Congress late
Friday which would pose a solution to the conflict between the
federal government's marijuana prohibition and state laws that
allow medical or recreational use.
California Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher said his bill, which
has three Republican and three Democratic sponsors, would ensure
that state laws on marijuana are respected by the federal
government. The measure would seek to amend the Controlled
Substances Act to make clear that individuals and businesses,
including marijuana dispensaries, who comply with state marijuana
laws are immune from federal prosecution. "This bipartisan bill
represents a common-sense approach that establishes federal
government respect for all states' marijuana laws," Rohrabacher
said in a news release. "It does so by keeping the federal
government out of the business of criminalizing marijuana
activities in states that don't want it to be criminal."
Presently, eighteen states and the District of Columbia have
medical marijuana laws, and two states, Washington and Colorado,
last fall became the first to pass laws legalizing, taxing and
regulating marijuana. Several other measures have also been
introduced to change U.S. marijuana laws, including moves to
legalize the industrial production of hemp and establish a hefty
federal pot tax in states where it's legal. Republican Reps. Justin
Amash of Michigan and Don Young of Alaska and Democratic Reps. Earl
Blumenauer of Oregon, Steve Cohen of Tennessee and Jared Polis of
Colorado co-sponsored Rohrabacher's bill.

"It seems obvious that based on recent events in Michigan as
well as Colorado and California, the need for one system or
application that will allow patients to receive their medication
directly from their caregiver, in a safe, secure manner while
meeting the demands of each state and eventually the federal
government, is now needed more than ever. The MediSwipe DMS will
prove to be that solution, starting with scanning the patient
record from the very beginning at patient certification, to the
tracking of the purchase of medicine through our proprietary
barcode system. We will soon be able expand to all legal
jurisdictions as we continue to improve our software to meet the
needs of each state requiring tracking and data from seed to plant
to patient, to sale, and prove we are the most viable solution. Our
software applications are set to cover the entire process of this
industry, and will not be affected by a few dispensaries in one
state that might have acted questionably. We are a patient and
caregiver based solution. It is our goal, as always, to take the
question marks out of the equation, and provide all the data
necessary from seed to patient through specialized barcodes,
biometrics and our patient portal for tracking of transactions
moving toward a multi-jurisdictional model," stated B. Michael
Friedman, CEO for MediSwipe.
