If I remember correctly, it failed last time by a 200-some odd vote against and 150-ish in favor. Though it gains votes every time it is brought up, I don't think we can count on it passing without some strong activism on our part. As others have said, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE contact your elected officials (repeatedly!) and let them know you support this legislation! Don't give up and don't give in!

As far as the website, it has been updated, and we are always looking for volunteers with skills like editing web pages, video, creating literature, contacting reps, etc. We are spread pretty thin! Madison NORML meets the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month at Escape Coffee, 940 Williamson St., across from Hempen Goods on Madison's East Side. Next meeting is June 8 at 7pm. The mmj bill is coming soon. WI NORML is also on Facebook, along with Madison NORML and Is My Medicine Legal YET? (IMMLY). We can pass a bill, but we are going to need all hands on deck! Everyone needs to find out who their state senator and state assembly rep are and get to know them. Make them comfortable with mmj. Finally, the 39th Annual Great Midwest Marijuana Harvest Festival is Oct. 1-4 in Madison. New website and once again looking for volunteers: MadisonHempFest.org.

We are a state in dire crisis, with a Governor that is trying to fix decades of wrongs in under 12 months. Do the medical thing and then follow suit with Cali & Mass and make it available to the greater population....What's taking so long? Seriously! NEW YORK wake up and pass it already!

Its a medicine for people that have physical and mental illnesess. It helps migrains, stress, gets rid of the nausea when you have the flu, and ect... We are hard working middle class people that don't want any trouble and just want to be left alone in peace. We should be able to smoke a joint instead of drinking a beer once in a while. The prisons should be filled with more murders, rapesists, and pediphiles instead of the non violent criminals with peddy little marijuana charges. We need to weave out the bad people, heal the sick, and maybe even boost the economy a little bit. We need to stop this war on marijuana.
