Bend Over: HB-1143 gets worse

[shackhouser]

this hasn't passed yet.

I looked over the current calendar for the House and I found this:

Thursday, February 10th
1:30 p.m.
Old Supreme Court Chamber Judiciary
HB 1043 Massey--Medical Marijuana

The calendar can be found here:House Calendar

I don't know if this is the day of the final vote or not but I have heard they are re-drafting it.......

shackhouser Reviewed by shackhouser on 02-04-2011. Bend Over: HB-1143 gets worse as we knew it would HB11-1043 New Draft as of 1/25/11 " The new draft of HB11-1043 is floating around. Not a whole lot of positive things to say about this draft. 1) Continued moratorium for another year, unless you are already in the industry. 2) No minority out of state ownership. 3) Felony cultivators are forever banned (not so for possession or sales). Rating: 5

Ya they will bounce it back and forth add this and that ,vote at least three times on it until its as scewed up as the one they are trying to fix(1284)

[HighPopalorum]

This is what will happen: the bill will go through several house committees, and each will have the opportunity to make changes. Certainly it will go through the Judiciary committee and the Health and Environment committee. Then, the house will vote on it and the bill will pass to the state senate. They might make more changes in committees, but might not. The final vote might not happen until June-ish.

but show up if you can and be ready for dirty tricks. Remember, 1284 was voted on at 4:20, without notice!

Good point CoPoBo. It kinda feels like "hurry up...and wait"...but I think we need to stay on top of it this time, knowing what took place before, and be ready to fight. The more we lose ground, the easier it seems for them to take more from us.:smokin:
