Medical Marijuana In Montana Saved By Helena Judge, For Now

In 2004, 64% percent of Montana voters voted for Medical Marijuana on the ballots. In the years that followed, suppliers popped up all around Montana as they saw the business grow from 180 customers in 2005 to 30,000 customers in 2011. Apparently this began to scare the general public and the legislators quickly took action.

Greener Pastures For Medical Marijuana

We discussed a bill recently that would allow officers to ticket drivers that were to be found with any dangerous drugs in their system if they seemed impaired behind the wheel. This was theorized to prevent any medical marijuana recipients from ever being able to drive as they would test positive for dangerous drugs. After today's legislature, this is no longer the case.

New Marijuana Laws

New terms and regulations are being put into effect regarding the sale of Marijuana in Montana. If passed, the Senate Bill 154 will require growers to be licensed and allow inspections of their facilities. A separate bill, House Bill 68, will require the licensing fee the growers pay to cover the cost of regulating such growers. Also 10 percent of the sales will be taxed helping out our Montanan economy. What do you think are we moving too fast with this?
