Title:
Bipartisan medical marijuana bill introduced in Wisconsin
Message:
That's right. On Monday, Rep. Gregg Underheim (R-Oshkosh) introduced\Assembly Bill 892, which would protect seriously ill Wisconsinites from criminal penalties. It is now in the Health Committee, which Rep. Underheim chairs.
Unfortunately, Assembly Speaker John Gard (R-Peshtigo) said the bill has "got a big mountain to climb" and that "the odds are stacked against [Underheim]." We need your help to change those odds and make sure this bill moves. Please contact your legislators. If your legislators have cosponsored A.B. 892, please thank them; if not, please urge them to do so.
