Sunday, March 02, 2008
Madison NORML and IMMLY are throwing a party to celebrate the impending return of Spring, as well as raise funds to help Jacki Rickert and other WI patients attend Patients Out of Time’s upcoming "Fifth National Clinical Conference on Cannabis Therapeutics" at the Asilomar Conference center in Pacific Grove CA click here.
This cutting-edge accredited conference on medical cannabis features international experts representing the latest research. In other words, exactly what Jacki and other WI patient-lobbyists need to impart to powerful opponents like Assembly Health and Healthcare Reform committee chair Rep. Leah Vukmir (R-Wauwatosa), whose blockade of the Jacki Rickert Medical Marijuana Act looks even more foolish now that the second-largest physician group in the U.S., the American College of Family Physicians, recently came out in support of medical cannabis click here.
