Patients and caregivers should be allowed to grow cannabis, and there should be more qualifying conditions. Only 3 compassion centers in the whole state? Will that REALLY be enough to help all the patients who need cannabis? This bill, amended this way, will exclude many people who need it. Where are these people supposed to go? They will probably wind up getting their medicine on the street... just the thing patients want to avoid. I'm all for reforms, but this bill won't cut it. This bill is no good.

She is a teller of old wives tales, but you never know what the govoner is going to do. I really hope Mr. Lynch decides to listen to the poeple and legislature and not Kelly Ayotte.

How often does he report the injustice of the drug war? Zero.

Individuals can apply to the state for a license to open one. They will not be run by the government. The primary goal of the bill is to protect seriously ill patients from arrest and prosecution, as well as provide a safe way for them to get access to their medicine. We obviously would prefer that patients and caregivers be allowed to grow their own plants; however, the political situation in NH doesn't currently allow that. If this bill fails, it will mean that sick and dying patients in NH will have to wait until at least mid-2011 before they could be protected from arrest. That would be unacceptable. ~Zane The compassion centers in New Hampshire’s bill will be nonprofit organizations. Individuals can apply to the state for a license to open one.
