Montana Lawmakers Debate Marijuana Legalization

In Helena, Montana, Governor Brian Schweitzer rejected a bill which abolishes the voters-approved medical marijuana law in Montana. Gov. Schweitzer said that it is against the people’s decision.

During the session, the Left house and the Senate conferees left the session. They left with only eight more days to discuss this matter and with a compromised proposal that will surely tighten the laws regarding the medical marijuana legalization.

With fifteen states that have legalized marijuana, it is not easy for the federal government to decide how to strongly implement and regulate the rules. They believe it could be risky and addictive but they said that they will not punish users as long as they follow the indicated state laws.

However, Montana legislatives disagree. They said that its legalization only attracts criminals and youth. Because of this, the bill sponsored by House Speaker Mike Milburn, which states the approval of marijuana legalization, took an unusual turn last week.
