The people of Rhode Island need to contact Governor Donald Carcieri and demand that he NOT veto this bill like he did a similar bill last year.
680 registered legal patients with the states Dpt of Health medical marijuana program have no way to legally purchase the medicine that the law says they can use. They have to resort to dealing with, often times, criminal dealers and risk safety and jail just to get what they need for some relief.
RI Senate Aproves Marijuana Stores
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - A bill that would allow nonprofit stores in Rhode Island to sell marijuana to medical patients is headed to the governor's desk. The state Senate passed the bill Tuesday afternoon by a 30-2 margin.
The bill has already passed the House and now heads to Governor Donald Carcieri for approval. The governor vetoed similar legislation last year.
