On October 15, 2017, the Washington Post and 60 Minutes released a scathing report on the pharmaceutical industry’s influence of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). This report, in large part, scrutinized Representative Tom Marino (R-PA) and his potential appointment as the head of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) also known as the Drug Czar because of his ties with and sponsorship of legislation favoring the pharmaceutical industry.

For women suffering from dysmenorrhea or “menstrual cramps,” this number can seem more like thousands. During this time, some women experience pains that originate in the lower abdomen/pelvic area that can be both physically and emotionally draining to cope with.

The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s.

Generally speaking, an illegal contract is one where the performance of the contract results in an illegal act. Illegal contracts are considered “void and unenforceable,” meaning neither party can sue the other party for nonperformance of the contract.

Marijuana may be legal in states like California and Colorado, but it is still illegal in a sense. For example, a drug test for a new job in California or Colorado will still test you for marijuana use despite you being allowed to consume it. Same applies in the professional sports world in a sense. Professional sports seasons take quite a toll on athletes’ bodies.
