Main reason is because AS OF JULY 27TH MEDICAL MARIJUANA IS LEGAL IN DC YEAAAHH

Best answer:

Answer by DON W
For routine matters, the answer is yes.

For medical marijuana, forget about it. It won’t be legal in Virginia, and a DC doctor won’t be able to prescribe it for a Virginia resident. And even for DC residents the monitoring will be very close: only a very small number of people with long-standing ailments for which marijuana treatments can be effective are likely to be able to get such drugs–and they will have to pick them up from special centers, not from the corner pharmacy.
