Santa Fe Reporter, 18 Nov 2009 - Drug Policy Reform Enters a New Era--of Hard Work Medical marijuana is finally happening--but distributing it may be the least of New Mexico's worries. Such was the conceit of the International Drug Policy Reform Conference, which began just days after New Mexico's Department of Health approved four new medical marijuana producers to field demand from the state's 755 patients.

If the state engages in a serious, factual debate that is not derailed by ideology and political posturing, the State Legislature will have the compassion and humanity to legalize the drug for patients. A bill sponsored by two Democratic state lawmakers, Sen. Jon Erpenbach and Rep. Mark Pocan, will have a public hearing in the Assembly and the Senate on Dec. 15 and possibly come up for a vote in January.

Capitol Weekly, 18 Nov 2009 - With multiple initiatives in circulation and an Assembly bill gathering headlines, discussions about legalizing marijuana have become part of California's political discourse. Advocates on one side argue that the result will be an economic boon as tax revenues rolls in and jails rid themselves of nonviolent offenders. Defenders of prohibition say legalization would be a nightmare of stoned kids, addiction and highway deaths.

CRA-ZY! i looked on line and found a few collages that were called "weed collages", but just found info on smoking pot on campus and things. do i need a license requiring a botanist degree or something? i doubt i can just open up a weed shop. if i can really go to collage to become a mj professor, look out, cause im coming fast!
