Ask Pres. Obama to pardon War Veteran Marine Kristoffer Lewandowski for Cannabis treatment of PTSD caused by combat.

Created by B.F. on September 08, 2016

PTSD is a very real issue with immense impact on the lives of veterans, their families & friends. For the majority of our Soldiers, common treatment brings more suffering due to the shortcomings of outmoded drugs. The American Legion, chartered by Congress in 1919, has stated its clear full support of Veterans receiving the best innovative care for PTSD and its ravages. Veteran Marine Kristoffer Lewadowski, husband & father of 3, honorably discharged from the Marines, is disabled due to severe PTSD. He served 3 tours of duty in Iraq & Afghanistan. He now faces 5 years in prison for growing less than an ounce to treat his PTSD & get off pharma drugs. Marijuana cost exceeds military payscale. While 13 pills a day just killed his liver, his wife says MMJ treatments were absolutely effective.
