The shutdown — which affects an estimated 800,000 federal workers and has stretched on for more than a month — stems from disagreements between President Trump and congressional Democrats over his request for more than $5 billion in funding for a border wall separating the United States and Mexico.“I don’t think federal employees are getting enough love and support, in these tough times, we want to extend the offer of a donation of medical cannabis to any federal worker affected by the shutdown,” BudTrader CEO Brad McLaughlin said in a Tuesday news release.The company said it’s working with an attorney to “ensure that all cannabis donations given to federal employees are confidential and compliant with California Cannabis adult use laws and regulations.”The site said it will donate “the maximum legal allowable amount of cannabis” to any affected government employees.Several companies and organizations have offered free goods and services to government employees struggling during the partial shutdown. Celebrity chef José Andrés opened up a pop-up restaurant offering free meals, while Kraft announced a grocery store pop-up filled with its products.Crowdfunding website GoFundMe said last week that federal worker have launched more than 1,500 campaigns since the shutdown began.Source: Hill, The (US DC)Author: Judy KurtzPublished: January 22, 2019Copyright: 2019 The HillContact: editor thehill.comWebsite: http://www.hillnews.com/URL: http://drugsense.org/url/Hp0EWGJ9CannabisNews Medical Marijuana Archiveshttp://cannabisnews.com/news/list/medical.shtml Home Comment Email Register Recent Comments Help Comment #11 posted by FoM on January 30, 2019 at 15:19:27 PT Sam As hard as a try I cannot understand why people support Trump. He is rude, crude and hateful and never tells the truth. He is shaking the very foundation of our society.

Trump's Presidency sure has worn me down. I hope it doesn't go on much longer and I do hope for the sake of the country he will have to pay for his crimes but I worry he will walk free. That wouldn't be a good example for the younger generation.
