This year there were six bills proposed that would decriminalize or legalize marijuana on some level. None of them were granted a committee hearing and therefor none of them made progress towards becoming law. But we could make a difference. 

To get elected I would have to overcome a popular incumbent. If enough of the constituency agrees that it’s time to end prohibition and if it’s a big enough issue to contribute to my victory over a popular incumbent then we will send a powerful message to the Committee on Courts and Criminal Code that times are changing and that’s it’s time to move forward or risk another lost seat in the General Assembly.

This is how we could make a difference. But it’s up to you. Are you willing to make some noise to move this issue foward? After primaries we’ll look at releasing campaign shirts and signs specific to the issue.
