PUT MEDICAL MARIJUANA PLAN ON BALLOT
For the second time in two years, Ohio voters might see an issue on
the November ballot to legalize marijuana under limited circumstances.
Washington, D.C.-based Marijuana Policy Project is proposing an
amendment to Ohio's constitution that would allow for medical use of
marijuana by qualifying patients with debilitating medical
conditions. The amendment also would permit the licensed and
regulated cultivation, manufacturing, testing, distribution and
dispensing of marijuana for medical use.
The group said its proposal is based on the medical marijuana laws
that have been passed in 23 other states and Washington, D.C. MPP is
aiming to put the issue in front of Ohio voters in the November
election. In order to do so, the group needs to collect 305,591
signatures by July 6.
