Medical Marijuana in New Jersey. Finally.

by: Jay Lassiter

Tue Jan 12, 2010 at 02:30:40 PM EST

When the NJ Senate and Assembly overwhelmingly passed a medical marijuana bill yesterday it put the Garden State in line to be the 14th state in the union to decriminalize cannabis for sick people.

Assemblyman Michael Patrick Carroll has the QOTD in this one for sure.

I've posted so many videos on this site and elsewhere I can't hardly remember them all, but this issue is possibly the most satisfying day I've has as an activist since the Obama/Alder double victory.  

So take a minute to meet the heros of this battle.

If you care about passing a Compassionate Care Marijuana law in New Jersey, now is the time to call your State House reps to let them know so.

The vote might could come as soon as MONDAY so don't procrastinate on this one.

Chances are there is someone in your life who might benefit from a Compassionate Marijuana Law in New Jersey.  A bill that would allow terminally ill New Jerseyans access to cannibis passed the Senate yesterday and is now headed to the Assembly.  So make sure to call your reps today.
