Republican and pro-cannabis
An Oshkosh Republican is doing what many in his party might feel is unthinkable. State Representative Gregg Underheim is introducing a bill to legalize marijuana for medicinal purposes.
Underheim's motives stem from his own bout with prostate cancer.

Although Underheim didn't take any marijuana in his recovery, he was told of others who could have used it. "One of the themes that echoed consistently was the difficulty of chemotherapy."

While he has been a marijuana enthusiast since his college days, Rubin told the Daily News that he became convinced it is the tree of life during a family crisis three years ago.
