Compassionate Use -- a struggle for access is a documentary by Eric Katz. it examines the Medical Cannabis Ordinance passed through Los Angeles City Hall in 2010.

COMPASSIONATE USE from Compassionate Use on Vimeo.

We’ve been nice… Too nice.

We attempted to help Los Angeles craft a fair ordinance. Instead, they enacted the worst medical marijuana regulations in the entire state of California. We opened our door for inspections to the entire city and the City Attorney’s office. We encouraged the city to consider the real medical aspects of the issue. Instead, they resolutely refuse to accept the medical use of cannabis, except for lip service and lies. We tried to show them that we were more than willing to comply. But now they are actively trying to eliminate our collective, with a blatant lie! It’s time for us to fight! And we would really appreciate our members help in this fight.

Together we can make a difference!!!
