  • Hemp History Week Hemp History Week Set for June 4-10, 2012
    It’s time to bring hemp back to our nation’s farms. U.S. farmers want to join the thriving market for healthy and sustainable hemp. Through the 3rd Annual Hemp History Week, June 4-10, 2012, we’re spreading the message that we need to change federal policy on industrial hemp to reflect today’s reality and ensure a better tomorrow for America’s families and farmers, the economy, and our planet.

Wisconsin Legislature to Consider Medical Marijuana Measure

Urge Your Elected Officials to Support AB 475/SB 371!

Legislation that seeks to legalize the physician-supervised use of medical marijuana has been reintroduced into both chambers of the Wisconsin legislature.

Assembly Bill 475 and Senate Bill 371 would amend state law to "authorize an individual to use marijuana for medical purposes as directed by a physician." The proposed legislation would allow for authorized patients to obtain their marijuana from state-licensed distribution centers. Qualified patients would also be permitted under the law to possess up to 12 plants and three ounces of usable marijuana.

AB 475 has been referred to the House Committee on Health. SB 371 has been referred to the Senate Committee on Health. Neither bill has been scheduled for a hearing.

Sixteen states -- Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Delaware, Hawaii, Maine, Michigan, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington -- in addition to the District of Columbia have enacted laws protecting medical marijuana patients from state prosecution. There is no legitimate reason why Wisconsin patients should not enjoy these same legal protections.

Please urge your member of the House and Senate to support this legislation by visiting NORML's Take Action Center here: http://www.capwiz.com/norml2/issues/alert/?alertid=57993501
