WILL MONTANA REPEAL ITS MEDICAL MARIJUANA LAW?




DrugSense FOCUS Alert #464 - Thursday , February 17th, 2011

It seems more likely than not that the Montana Legislature http://leg.mt.gov/ will repeal the state's medical marijuana law.

In November 2004, Montana passed Initiative 148 http://www.dphhs.mt.gov/medicalmarijuana/i148text.pdf , allowing certain patients with specific medical conditions to alleviate their symptoms through the limited use of marijuana under medical supervision. Montanans overwhelmingly endorsed the 2004 initiative by 62 percent to 38 percent.

News clippings about this effort to repeal are at http://www.mapinc.org/states/MT/

If Montana's law is repealed it will encourage similar efforts in other medical marijuana states.

Please do whatever you can to help stop this effort. Tell your friends. Forward this alert or send links to it. Support organizations opposing the repeal effort.

It is not what others do, it is what you do.
