This month, Gov. Richardson from New Mexico signed into law a bill allowing the use of marijuana for therapeutic purposes. A decade ago, the nation’s first medical marijuana law went into effect in California. Since then, 11 other states have passed laws approving its medical use. This is a debate on the medical benefits touted by proponents. This program is in collaboration with KQED, San Francisco’s public radio.
