(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 13, 2015 ) Denver, Colorado -- According to a recent article published by the Washington Times, Colorado's supreme court has ruled companies are free to make their own marijuana policies, even if that includes firing employees who have a sanctified medical marijuana prescription. The state erupted when the ruling of Brandon Coats, a quadriplegic who was fired for taking prescribed medical marijuana. Because of the present federal ban on marijuana, the Washington Times reports Colorado's high court ruled 6-0 Coats, and others, are not protected by the Lawful Off-Duty. The Lawful Off-Duty state ordained policies protect employees from getting fired while participating in legal behavior (like drinking over the age of 21). The Washington Times quotes Justice Allison Eid, "There is no exception for marijuana use for medicinal purposes, or for marijuana use conducted in accordance with state law."
Drug and Alcohol Rehab Denver asserts the confusion of federal law and state laws causes dysfunctions in the realm of understanding for the general public, and stresses a nation wide consensus on the issue should unify the states. Drug and Alcohol Rehab Denver specializes in heroin rehab in Denver and provides clients with drug and alcohol addiction treatment from the entire state of Colorado.
An associate from the drug rehab facility in Denver comments, "It's not enough for the states to legalize marijuana is there continues to be a federal ban of the substance. The discrepancies of regulation is causing confusion and disorganization not only among officials, but those who partake in legal, and illegal use of the substance. I fear these griefs will overshadow the very necessary provisions needed to educate the public on safe marijuana consumption. Just as alcohol addiction prevention and education is necessary to help stave off newly developed alcohol use disorders, cannabis must receive them same."
The Washington Post reports officials are clamoring for the Courts to move medical marijuana and recreational marijuana use under protected rights in states who have legalized those measures. Thus far 23 states allow some form of marijuana use legally for medical purposes.
