BREAKING NEWS

Sen. Romer announced this morning that he will no longer be sponsoring a Medical Marijuana Dispensary Regulations bill in this session of the Colorado legislature. In a story posted this morning on The Huffington Post, Sen. Romer says,

â??Without a patient face like Janice Beecher or an effective lobbying and education campaign by the MMJ community, I see more and more obstacles to any editorial, bi-partisan or even limited partisan support for a set of common sense rules.â?�

Sen. Romer will now sponsor a bill in the Colorado Senate which will only seek to better clarify the doctor-patient relationship and improve the CDPHE Medical Marijuana Registry. The Colorado House of Representatives will be introducing a bill based largely on ideas put forth by the Sheriffâ??s Association and Attorney General Suthers which, among other things, brings back the â??5 patient per caregiverâ?� limit and would effectively shut down dispensaries.

At this point we donâ??t know many more details but expect to learn lots of new information over the next several days. To read the full post from Sen. Romer, please visit:

It's highly unlikely that it just goes away. He's a big baby. Quits when he doesn't get his way.
