Medical Marijuana

Question: 

I was fired from my job because I tested positive for marijuana. I have a prescription for marijuana to help manage pain related to my MS. Can my employer fire me?

Answer: 

Yes, you can be fired for testing positive for marijuana if the company has a zero tolerance drug policy. While many states are legalizing marijuana, it is still illegal at the Federal level under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).
