House Joint Measure 31 hearing
- Apr. 19th, Thu., 1:30PM, Hearing Room D. As
currently written HJM31 urges Congress to reschedule
marijuana from Schedule I of federal Controlled Substances Act. There has
been an amendment suggested, which substitutes a recommendation to Congress
that they not interfere with those states which exempted it's patients
from state criminal prosecutions, for the previous language calling for
the rescheduling of marijuana from schedule I.
Since HJM 31 was introduced, a federal bill, HR 1344, (called the "States' Rights to Medical Marijuana Act.") has been introduced by Congressman Barney Frank (D. Mass.). If you can't be there please send in testimony. Please contact the Health Committee chair, and have constituents of the other Health Committee members contact their representative to: * encourage amending HJM 31 to recommend passage of HR 1344 and to encourage sending HJM 31, as amended, to the floor with a 'do pass' recommendation at this Thursday's Health Committee Hearing * request a hearing for HB 3919 (amending Oregon Med. MJ Act) There are 5 bills to be heard, with a break scheduled at 4:30 PM. If business is not complete, they will reconvene at 6 PM.
