I am the producer of The NORML Network, the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog, and NORML's Outreach Coordinator. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" and I travel across the country to educate people on marijuana reform. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to give voice to the Marijuana Nation and to speak for those who can't speak up.
Well Allison I’d rather the reps. have a problem and be in the hot seat than the people. As it stands too many people on medical are being hauled off to jail and tried because they left US with this problem to fix. Why hasn’t the ACLU worked to have it fixed? I really respect the work Allison does and have been a fervent supporter of the ACLU, so I find the stand against I-1068 unacceptable. Moving forward, not backwards.
I have had lots of public support and excitement while obtaining signatures. I would love to see HEMP fields growing out here in the Snohomish flats and our economy helped.
