MEDICAL MARIJUANA BILLS HAVE BACKING

I am happy to see that our state legislature has introduced a medical
marijuana bill -- HB 277. The American College of Physicians, American
Nurses Association and many others support protecting medical
marijuana patients from arrest.

The popularity of medical marijuana laws is overwhelming. In fact, all
83 counties in Michigan recently voted in favor of a medical marijuana
initiative, giving it a higher percentage win than the president-elect
(medical marijuana received 63 percent of the vote; the
president-elect 55 percent). The fact is, the public supports it,
doctors support it, nurses support it, even religious leaders support
it -- seems to me that the only reason left for legislators to not
support this bill is because they simply don't want to.
