The people behind Amendment 2 have/had loved ones who could have benefited from medical cannabis. If we had taken the money we spent on arresting and imprisoning people for possession of cannabis and actually studies the plant, we might have developed targeted versions for nausea, seizure control, and pain without the psychotropic effects, but people keep voting for prohibitions in one form or another without any attention to effectiveness.

thank you for the link to that intent information on amendment 2. I’ve been somewhat on the fence about this amendment.
I generally look to the league of women voters for information on these things if I have any doubts, but they aren’t as definite in their views on the other amendments as they are on amendment 1, so I wasn’t sure what to think.
