I was surprised to see that the law made illegal for employers to ban people from being high at work. But, they already are anyways arn't they.....


I miss read the law. It actually says the act is not to be interpretated as keeping employers from prohibiting Cannabis in the work place

I live in Oregon and am closing watching this bill and HB 2919. Actually just called the Revenue Committee today to find out where it is at on the agenda.
Anyhow, I really take objection to section 20(3) a,f, and i
talking about: the applicants use of alcohol, drugs, controlled substances in excess; must be of good repute and moral character; and demonstration of financial responsibility.

I really want it to pass but I hope they rethink these items.

I do too. I love using all those things in excess.

def a step in the right direction. as long as the hemp is all in EASTERN Oregon

I doubt they pass, rumor has it the med community in Oregon is against anything resembling legalization after watching CO and WA for six months and how the feds are dealing. Much more leeway with the med versions, than the hemp and legalization process. Is that damn Paul Stanford behind those bills, oh no, not again.? That's as bad as putting language in a bill making the state atty general a mj advocate, really, you think this is gonna happen, given all the fed money that comes into Oregon, especially with the timber bullshit, and you really think people are gonna pass a law like that. It didn't pass last time, it won't pass again. Oregonian ain't givin up their excess grey area proceeds to the state coffers, trust.

There is A LOT of distrust in the Oregon medical community of legalization efforts, not only having to do with federal intervention, although that is a big one. Any kind of legalization system where the state government can tax cannabis will create a conflict of interest, where in order to raise more tax proceeds, it would be in the interest of the state to reduce the amount of medical approvals to get med users to buy taxed products. I didn't read the text so maybe there is no talk about creating a retail system and tax, but really where would it eventually lead if passed.

OMMP is exempt in this bill as is homegrowing your own 6 mature plants and 24 ounces of marijuana.

For the time being tho. I mean the OMMP can be exempt but the state can start denying applications and renewals left and right. Also if people can grow for personal, a lot of patients will be dropped by registered growers, hence a large amount of distrust.

why do you think growers would drop cards?

don't you mean patients dropping growers?

it is not in the interest of growers to drop cards
