The U.S. Drug Czar John Walters has said that he does not support Proposition 1, a controversial proposal which would legalize doctors prescribing medical marijuana to patients.  Walters, a Michigan native who heads the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy opposes this law as he believes that this “makes it easier for addicts to stay addicted,” and would lead to more marijuana abuse by teens. 

Proposition 1 is set to be on the November 4th ballot in Michigan and if passed would legalize the use of marijuana as a prescribed drug.
