HI Legal Pot Bill Dead for This Year, CA Psychedelic Decrim Bill Advances, More… (3/27/23)

Rerolled: March 27, 2023 | #STDW


Hawaii's Democratic House speaker pumps the brakes on marijuana legalization, and Idaho medical marijuana bill emerges, and more.

Marijuana Policy

Hawaii Marijuana Legalization Bill Dies for Lack of House Hearing. A marijuana legalization bill, Senate Bill 669, that already passed the Senate and had the support of Gov. Josh Green (D) appears dead for the year after it failed to get a House hearing before a legislative deadline last week. The House leadership earlier this year killed off three other legalization bills in the same fashion, and House Speaker Scott Saiki (D) said  he preferred that lawmakers spend the summer "studying" legalization rather than acting now. The bill may be dead for this year, but the session extends into next year, so the bill could still arise again.

Medical Marijuana

Idaho Restrictive Medical Marijuana Bill Filed. A bill that would allow for the use of medical marijuana "for substantial health conditions," including AIDS, ALS, cancer, and more was filed in the House last Friday. Medical marijuana could not be smoked or vaped but is defined as "ingestible cannabis processed to a tablet, chewable, droplet or pill." The measure, House Bill 370, was introduced by Rep. John Vander Woude (R).

Psychedelics

California Psychedelic Drug Decriminalization Bill Passes Senate Public Safety Committee. The Senate Public Safety Committee has approved a measure to decriminalize the possession of plant- and fungi-based psychedelic drugs, Senate Bill 58. The bill would also remove bans on having psilocybin or psilocyn spores that can produce mushrooms and on having drug paraphernalia associated with all decriminalized drugs. The bill is the brainchild of Sen. Scott Weiner (D-San Francisco) and is a pared down version of broader psychedelic decriminalization he first introduce in 2021. That bill would have applied to synthetic psychedelics, including LSD and MDMA, as well, but was gutted until all that was left was a study bill. This year's bill continues the paring back; it removes peyote from the list of natural psychedelics to be decriminalized in a nod to the concerns of the Native American Church, which seeks to protect a scarce supply of peyote for spiritual purposes.

International

 

. Coca farmers from around the country are complaining that cocaine sales have collapsed after production of the drug hit record levels last year. The situation is causing a food crisis in Catatumbo, where the economy depends almost entirely on the coca and cocaine trade, said coca farmers' representative Leidy Diaz. "Coca paste has not been purchased for several months and this causes many families to be unable to meet their basic needs, such as food," she said. The situation is similar in other coca-growing regions, such as Narino and Cauca in the southeast and southern Putumayo province.

Wer Teenager zuhause hat, weiß wie wichtig 14-Jährigen der eigene Schutzraum, die eigene, wachsende Intimsphäre ist.
Polizeilich maximal entwürdigendes Vorgehen mit Auskleidung und Inspektion der Geschlechtsteile für #Cannabis Verdacht ist vor dem Hintergrund extra widerwärtig.
