"Hello! I wanted to let you all know that medical marijuana legislation was introduced yesterday 02/04/2010 in the Maryland General Assembly (bill numbers are still pending)! We are excited by the prospect of real reform in Maryland and ASA unequivocally supports changes to state law that would establish comprehensive civil and legal protections for individuals who use or provide cannabis for therapeutic use. However, we are concerned that the bill includes arbitrary and unnecessary restrictions that will fall short of meeting the legitimate needs of patients across the state.
Check out ASA’s press release http://www.safeaccessnow.org/article.php?id=5897 announcing the introduction of the legislation and providing some brief commentary about our primary concerns with the bill as submitted to the General Assembly. Also, don’t forget to listen to the podcast of the Marc Steiner Show, http://www.steinershow.org/radio/the-marc-steiner-show/february-3-2010-segment-1 , featuring the bill’s lead sponsor, Del. Dan Morhaim, and other experts discussing the effort to fix Maryland’s medical marijuana law.
Stay tuned for more news, analysis, action alerts, and meeting announcements in the coming days."
Cheers,
The ASA-Maryland Team
