Ken, Ed, and Jim at Fundraising event in Red Bank
The Coalition for Medical Marijuana ─ New Jersey, was founded in May of 2003 to support safe and legal access to medical marijuana for patients under a doctor's supervision.
Coalition members hold diverse opinions, but we all agree:
New Jersey healthcare professionals dispense potentially lethal drugs every day. We trust them to do so very carefully, and solely to benefit their patients. Common sense and compassion demand that doctors should control non-lethal marijuana medicine for those who truly need it. To make this important change a reality, your voice is needed.
The New Jersey Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act was introduced in the State Senate in January 2005 by Senator Nicholas Scutari (D-Linden). A companion bill is pending in the Assembly, sponsored by Assemblyman Reed Gusciora (D-Princeton) and Assemblyman Michael Carroll (R-Morris Township).
Please contact your representatives in the Assembly and Senate, and tell them what you think. It's the most important thing you can do to help the bill become law.
Also, please add your email address to the Mailing List field at left, press "subscribe" and we'll keep you posted on important dates, news and ways you can help support the New Jersey patients and families who need your help. Thank you very much.
PS: Within two days in September 2004, both the Times of Trenton and the Press of Atlantic City announced their support for legalizing medical marijuana.
