Thanks to Progressive Reform of Oregon, we have an exciting new ad that explains Measure 74 and endorses it as well. Hope you enjoy this; it defines Measure 74 in positive ways, especially for voters (like me!) who don’t really understand it. Thanks to Pro-Oregon for putting it together.

Vote YES on 74!

T-Mobile Blocks Texting Services for WeedMaps.Com, a California Medical Marijuana Dispensary. T-Mobile Gets Sued in NY Federal Court.

Rep. Lamar Smith (R-TX) is pushing a bill that aims to put yet more people in jail for using marijuana, even hoping to create a crime for “conspiracy to possess” marijuana that could put people in jail for planning to fly to Amsterdam with their friends to smoke pot.

That’s bad enough, and luckily Nancy Pelosi pulled the bill off the House’s fast track. But Lamar Smith continues his war on marijuana, hilariously suggesting on Fox News that Barack Obama is “encouraging the use of marijuana.”

But Paul Armentano, Deputy Director of NORML, took to the pages of The Hill newspaper to give a reality check to Lamar Smith’s lies.
