Instruct all US Government Agencies and Employees To Use the correct term Cannabis instead of slang terms,

Created by D.G. on October 17, 2011

Many governmental and professional persons and documents are constantly using slang words for the Cannabis plant. These slang words are both unprofessional in speech and written documents and tend to confuse. I propose that all of these slang words be removed and changed to the word Cannabis instead of Marihuana , Marijuana, Mary Jane, Weed, Pot, Reefer, Grass, and many more. For the fiber crops that have negligible THC content, I also include the name Industrial Hemp to identify it from it's medical use cousin now called Cannabis. I propose the Obama Administration institute this immediately to all Governmental Agencies and employees. All prior records need to be changed as they can be but before the next five years.
