>>The Attorney General of Michigan, Bill Schuette, is trying to bring stricter regulations to medical marijuana laws. According to Schuette, " “The law has been hijacked by drug dealers who want to make money, line their pockets and make a huge profit … This law has as many holes as Swiss cheese. It’s out of control and we need to fix it.”
Unfortunately, the proposed bills could potentially harm medical marijuana patients. Specifically, the eight bills would regulate the location of dispensiaries, impose stricter regulations on qualifying medical conditions, restrict felons from being caregivers, cease online medical marijuana certification, specify the relationship between the patient and their doctor, and more.
Republican representative John Walsh stated, "We have a goal of protecting public safety while preserving the legitimate right of people who need medical marijuana,” and claims medical marijuana patients and advocates were invited to the press conference on this issue. However, medical marijuana advocates themselves claim that medical marijuana patients and those who need MMJ were NOT invited to the press conference.
Those in support of the current Michigan marijuana laws fear that changed such as those proposed by Bill Schuette would be in conflict with the needs and rights of state citizens. No bill in Michigan exists or has been proposed that would ban medical marijuana dispensaries, although Shuette has stated in the past he believes dispensaries are unlawful and should be outlawed.
