Obama gave a directory command to all federal law officials. It stated that any federal drug laws are not to be enforced if it is not against the law of the state that the infraction resides.
He also stated the "[Obama] will not veto a law supporting the medicinal use of marijuana.
There is your high ranking public official, the president
If I'm wrong, feel free to provide a link. I personally was unable to find anything other than the Attorney General announcing the shift in medicinal marijuana enforcement.
