House bill HB2514 passed the House and Senate bill SB1381 is on schedule to be voted on. Jim has been invited to speak in Springfield on the medicinal benefits of marijuana on alleviating pain and spasms.
While medicinal marijuana may not help everyone, it helps many. Jim wants to help many get off hard narcotics and be legally able to smoke marijuana for pain, spasms and other ailments without worrying about legal implications. We are awaiting calls back from our senator and congressman to set up a possible date when he will be testifying in Springfield. So, if you support these bills and live in Illinois, please join us in supporting Illinois to pass the Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act. Thank you.

Be sure to have Jim mention that Columbian gold works best.

Sandy,
I'll get right on it...although I'm sure my conservative reps here wouldn't support the bill. I've never used drugs except alcohol (my adult kids don't believe me, but it's true), so I am a bit skittish about using mj. But I am willing to try it as my medication load goes up to deal with the increasing spasms/pain. So I'll look up my reps and write them...hope it helps...let us know if Jim is called to go before the legislature...

Not in Ill, but good for Jim!
 I have not tried it for my pain as it's against the law. But I am all for making it available for those who it would help. I just think if there's any chance it helps some people, those folks deserve relief.  to both of you!
