POT FIGHT ON BALLOT? THAT'S THEIR PLAN
Medical Marijuana Supporters Want Voters to Decide
Medical marijuana supporters, who finally pushed legislation onto the
governor's desk in Minnesota only to see the bill vetoed, are
preparing for an even bigger task next year: ensuring the right of
the sick and dying to smoke marijuana by writing it into the state's
constitution.
Bypassing Gov. Tim Pawlenty and putting the question straight to
voters is no easy chore. Supporters of last year's Clean Water, Land
and Legacy Amendment spent nearly $4 million to get the measure
passed. Yet, medical marijuana backers say they're willing to foot the bill.
