Help Stop Statewide Bill which Threatens Patient Rights
**Hearing Thursday at 1:30 PM**

On Thursday, March 4, starting at 1:30pm, the Colorado State Legislature will hear the first reading of a bill which seeks to regulate dispensaries– and weaken patient rights. This bill, HB 1284, which was largely authored by law enforcement, threatens to cripple the state medical marijuana law in a number of ways. (You can read HB 1284 by clicking here)
Here are a few of the most damaging provisions of the bill:

•Prohibits patients from living near schools. Patients could not possess medicine within 1000 feet of a school, which means patients could not live near schools.
•Patients could not join together with family members or others to share grow space.
•Would allow cities and towns to ban dispensaries– forcing sick patients to “get on the bus” to find medicine.
Here’s how you can help fight HB 1284
Attend the Thursday Hearing. Legislators need to hear from patients and professionals about how damaging HB 1284 will be. This Hearing should begin around 1:30 at the State Capitol in Denver in the Old Supreme Court Chambers (2nd floor). Please show up, dress nice, and spread the message to “vote no on HB 1284.”
Call your state legislator
Every state legislator should hear how bad HB 1284 is. You can find and contact your state legislators here. Note you will need to enter your nine digit zip code to find your state rep and senator. Find your full zip code here.

call everyone you know in Colorado. WE NEED ACTION!!

Action Jaxon: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/182/p/dia/action/public/index.sjs?action_KEY=2463

Support U.S. Rep. Jared Polis' letter!

Following recent DEA medical marijuana raids in Colorado, U.S. Representative Jared Polis (CO-2) made a statement online calling on the DEA to "stop their rogue agents from harassing and raiding our medical marijuana dispensaries."

In a formal letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, Rep. Polis asked about a DEA agent’s comments that the DEA will “arrest everybody.” Rep. Polis asked whether this is in fact U.S. policy. The DEA is a part of Attorney General Holder's Department of Justice.

Please email U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder today. Tell the Attorney General that you support Rep. Polis’ letter, and that you want an official response.

These people really piss me off, they have absolutely no common sense. I think we've already discussed how ridiculous it is to say you can't use your medicine if you live near a school.



Another wouldn't allow them to grow their own medical marijuana if they chose to buy it at a dispensary.


Ok, think about that for a minute. You are a patient who needs cannabis. You want to save money, so you grow your own cannabis. It takes several months to grow, and another month to dry and cure. Please explain to me wtf you are supposed to consume while the medicine you are growing is being prepared?!??



Dispensaries have won some concessions in the latest proposal, which would allow them to continue to operate as for-profit businesses.

The reason why dispenaries HAVE TO operate as "for-profit" is because on top of their salaries and expenses for growing (which while very profitable is also very
expensive), they also have to consider the possibility of future legal fees. In California the dispensaries have their own funds and pool together resources so that if even one person gets raided, they have a lot of resources for recourse.



so the state can make sure that the marijuana is indeed being used as medicine.

What does that even mean?! 90-100% of the population has some condition which they would benefit from the use of marijuana.



he didn't think it's feasible for the growing number of medical marijuana patients to grow their own.

...

"It didn't make sense to have 100,000 people growing in their own basement," he said.


Why not?? Are you investing in these dispensaries now that they can operate "for-profit"?? Do you have any idea how much a patient can save in the long run by growing their own?
