Marijuana has been approved by many states and the nation's capital to treat a range of illnesses, but the federal government has ruled that it has no accepted medical use and should remain classified as a dangerous drug like heroin...The decision to deny the request was made by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and comes less than two months after advocates asked the U.S. Court of Appeals to force the administration to respond to their petition.
