On June 7th, Attorney General Eric Holder told Congress he would only enforce federal action against dispensaries that were in direct violation of state law. Meaning – a dispensary had to be actually breaking the law to get raided. In Haag’s own statement she admits this isn’t the case at Harborside – she only believes that due to their size and the high number of patients in their care, a violation is somehow inevitable.
