Open letter to Governor Brown (if you feel the same, contact him, below)
1. SB 847 will make patients collectives that are established but within 600 feet of a residence, have to close. This ignores their pre-existing rights, stigmatizes patients, and reduces safe access.
2. AB 1300 will allow cities to ban dispensaries. This will make a patchwork of city rules, and it will lead to “small town thinking” and local rule of an item of state-wide concern that should be governed by state law, not small minds and their belief systems about medical marijuana.
Both of these lousy measures were written by DEMOCRATS (shame, shame) and both passed both houses of the state legislature. There is only one last ditch chance, the veto and the pocket veto.
Get involved, let’s send the message to the Gov: don’t sign these bills which clearly derogate from State rights!
