Letter: Sen. Mitt Romney is wrong about cannabis research

(Francisco Kjolseth | Tribune file photo) Sen. Mitt Romney meets state lawmakers at the Utah Capitol as he speaks with members of the Republican House Caucus during a series of meetings Feb. 21, 2019.

About a month ago, Sen. Mitt Romney said, “There’s never really been a study on what is the actual benefit of taking a cannabis-related product.”

That’s not true. You can go to the publicly funded search engine, Pubmed, search for “cannabis” and find plenty of research already done.

Chris Paul, Midvale
