VOTERS DESERVE A VOICE

As a former prosecuting attorney and as a cancer victim, I strongly
believe that the voters should be allowed to express their opinion as
to the legalization of the use of marijuana by persons with
debilitating medical conditions when recommended by a physician.

Accordingly, I support the petitions requesting that an initiated act
authorizing such use be placed on the ballot. And if given an
opportunity, I will sign one. Furthermore, if I were physically able,
I would circulate one.
