On May 19th several groups of advocacy hit the State Capitol in Lansing to speak to House Representatives and our Senators about the Anti-Caregiver Bill Package and House Bill 5512 that would allow Judges to undermine a Medical Marijuana recommendation from a doctor. #Judgesarenotdoctors
Looking on the Bright Side
We also spent some time talking about the positive and productive bills in the house.
Jayden's Law HB 4796
HB 4797 John Sinclair Act/De-schedule Marijuana HB 5877 Remove Medical Marijuana Sales Tax HB 4085 HB 4086

Thank you to Brandy Zink from Michigan ASA Chapter for pulling together a strong group of advocates who worked together to spread the message to our legislators.
Moving Forward!
With Representatives and Senators terming out, we are going to see some action on the floors of both the House and The Senate.
The Michigan Weedsters will dedicate time to fight these bills with evidence. We depend on the public to fill out surveys to help us with evidence based data.
Please do your part and call your Legislatures and say NO to the Cannabis Safety Act HB5300-5302
