Mr. Rosenfeld testifies before the State of Michigan Committee on Government Operations on Tuesday November 28th, 2006
So we all know that our legislature understands the issue, yet they did nothing. Now the chance lies with us this November if the legislature fails to act again, which is expected.
The vote will require the lawmakers to:
Quote:
According to MCCC, the initiative would:
Allow terminally and seriously ill patients who find relief from marijuana to use it with their doctors' approval.
Protect these seriously ill patients from arrest and prosecution for the simple act of taking their doctor-recommended medicine.
Permit qualifying patients or their caregivers to cultivate their own marijuana for their medical use, with limits on the amount they could possess.
Create registry identification cards, so that law enforcement officials could easily tell who was a registered patient, and establish penalties for false statements and fraudulent ID cards.
Allow patients and their caregivers who are arrested to discuss their medical use in court.
Continuing certain restrictions on the medical use of marijuana, including prohibitions on public use of marijuana and driving under the influence of marijuana.
The issue sits well with voters. However, the younger side is less accepting, hopefully because they support complete decriminalization of weed. From the article:Quote:
Voters between 34 and 54 showed 75% support for medical marijuana, and 63% of retirees did. Somewhat surprisingly, younger voters (18 to 34) were the least supportive, backing the measure 61% to 36%.

This November, make your voices heard!!!

It's funny how when you're talking about testing the first nuclear weapon, which some scientists thought could possibly set off a chain reaction that would burn off our entire atmosphere and leave a lifeless barren rock floating in space, the risk is justified. But if a few extra people might get stoned it's just too dangerous to try.
