Title:
WY: Stand up against meaningless and mean-spirited legislation
Message:
The Wyoming House of Representatives recently passed
legislation stating that, with the exception of dronabinol, any prescription or
order from a physician for marijuana, THC, or synthetic THC is invalid. Please call your senator today and ask that he or she oppose
this legislation.
This bill is a waste of legislative time. No physician, even
those in states with medical marijuana laws, may prescribe marijuana because it
is a Schedule I substance. Furthermore, Wyoming’s law does not protect patients
using medical marijuana, so a physician's order to use would be irrelevant and no
defense to a marijuana charge. Finally, this bill indicates a strong hostility
to medical marijuana, which
81% of the American public supports allowing.
Please contact your senator and point out the
absurdity of this bill.
Instead of wasting legislative time on
bills that will affect no change, encourage your senator to champion for
compassion and common sense by submitting a medical marijuana bill.
Thank you for your time.
