According to a news report by a local ABC affiliate station, Mr. Shapiro is quoted as saying that “[t]he [Pennsylvania] legislature and the Governor have come together to pass a new law that says medicinal marijuana is acceptable, so, it would be my job to defend that if anyone encroaches upon that interest.”
