GREAT NEWS !
Illinois state senate passed the bill today 30-28.
Now it goes to the house.
Illinois state House currently has:
70 Democrats
48 Republicans
Shouldn't be a problem to get it thru the house. Our governor, Pat Quinn, is a liberal democrat from Oak Park (1st suburb from the westside of the Chi). I assume he will sign it into LAW.
Eager to read all the details and conditions in the bill !!!
:hippy:
Don't count on it just cause he's a liberal. So far it looks like Arnold might be the closest governor to signing a full decrim if it looks like majority of Californians support it. And he's considered a conservative republican by many people.
And look how bad places like Texas, Louisiana, and FL are, considering that they swing both ways and frequently favor the democrats, but look what they do in office.
I wish my neighbor state to the south the best. We can only hope....
I'll be sending out an email soon.
Hopefully we do get this med weed. Obama should help us out since he used to live here haha. But i doubt we are gonna get it because we are one of the most strict states when it comes to laws and weed isnt going to be passes easily. SO CROSS YOUR FINGERS!
I've been praying for MMJ to pass in Illinois. I almost got caught up last time when I was visiting family; I spent a day visiting the North Side and someone snitched on me for using my medicine. Some bull-shit I've never had to deal with in the South or West side of town. Thankfully my cousin was able to pull some strings with the Chicago PD and it "never happened." ;) *crosses fingers & hopes for the best for Illinois*
does anyone know when the house vote is for ill
