<title>US House Votes Against Stopping Feds&amp;#8217; Medical Pot Raids</title>
<description><![CDATA[For the sixth time in a decade, the U.S. House of Representatives last week defeated an amendment to an appropriations bill that would have prohibited the federal Dept of Justice from raiding medical marijuana dispensaries in those states with legal medicinal cannabis laws.
&#160;
The bipartisan amendment was co-sponsored, as it has been each of the six times it&rsquo;s been introduced, by Maurice Hinchey (D-NY) and Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA), and this year they were joined by Tom McClintock &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/news/mmiller/7689">More</a>]]></description>

<title>Colorado Legalize Pot Campaign Runs Mother&amp;#8217;s Day Ad</title>
<description><![CDATA[In times past, most people didn&rsquo;t associate marijuana with the wholesome all-American holiday of Mother&rsquo;s Day, annually celebrated on the second Sunday in May.&#160;But the advocates of Yes on 64, the Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol, are challenging that notion by running a subtle yet effective TV ad today entitled &ldquo;Dear Mom.&rdquo;

In the 30-second spot, a woman in her mid- to late-twenties is seen in a park typing on her laptop, composing a letter to her &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/news/mmiller/7682">More</a>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Later this month, the Arizona Dept of Health Services will hold a hearing as part of the effort to permit patients suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), migraines, depression, and general anxiety disorder to also legally use medical marijuana.&#160;&#160;
&#160;
Prop 203, the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act, legalized the drug after voters approved it in November 2010, but the number of maladies the law allows to be treated with medicinal cannabis is limited.

<title>Pot DUI Bill Dies in Colorado Assembly</title>
<description><![CDATA[A restrictive Colorado DUI bill that would have made it easier to convict drivers who used marijuana (but were not necessarily stoned when arrested) died in the state House of Representatives in Denver on Tuesday evening with an indirect assist from a legislative impasse over the controversial gay marriage issue.
&#160;
Senate Bill 117 would have made it a misdemeanor with a possible jail sentence of up to six months and a fine of up to $500 for anyone caught with five or more nanograms of &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/news/mmiller/7677">More</a>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[One of the legends of rap passed away on Friday. Beastie Boys&rsquo; Adam &ldquo;MCA&rdquo; Yauch died at the all-too-young age of 47.&#160;He died in Brooklyn (where he was born in 1964) after a three-year battle with parotid salivary gland cancer since 2009.&#160;Yauch is survived by his wife Dechen and his daughter Tenzin Losel Yauch, as well as his parents Frances and Noel Yauch.&#160;Though Beastie Boys began in the early 1980s as a hardcore punk band, it was the final lineup of Yauch &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/news/mmiller/7668">More</a>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[A newly released international <i>Angus Reid</i> public opinion poll reports that a vast majority of Americans, Canadians and Britons support marijuana possession offenders being fined, serving community service or sentenced to probation rather than being incarcerated. &#160;&#160;

<title>Tourist Pot Ban Protested in Southern Netherlands</title>
<description><![CDATA[May Day is a celebration rooted in both the ancient pagan (honoring Spring) and the post-modern political (International Workers Day), so it seemed fitting that both tourists and coffeeshop owners in the Netherlands banded together on Tuesday to voice their collective opposition to the law that went into effect that day prohibiting all sales of cannabis to foreigners and only permitting a restricted number of registered local citizens to purchase pot.
