Haha Dewine! Changes to Issue 2 Ohio #marijuana law stall in House
Ohio House Speaker Jason Stephens, R-Kitts Hill, told reporters Tuesday that the House won’t vote on any marijuana legislation this week before lawmakers take a monthlong holiday break.
DeWine teamed up with the GOP Senate to make the voter ballot initiative law impotent. #ohio #issue2
Recreational marijuana use, cultivation & possession became legal in Ohio on December 7th, including home grow.
4/ on the eve of legal #marijuana, Gov DeWine urges #Ohio House and Senate to vote tonight & pass the compromise bill
Home grow is to remain, only 6 plants per household instead of 12, THC levels to remain the same, as well as volume of weed.
The surprise is, instead of several months down the road, medical marijuana dispensaries can start selling recreational on December 7th #issue2
Ohio Senate committee approves changes to recreational marijuana bill

3/ Medical #marijuana dispensaries address the Ohio Senate asking them to let them sell recreational weed while arguing home grow marijuana will make it into the illicit drug market on the street
2/ The senate rushed through their #marijuana bill, including banning home grow & severe limits to where dispensaries can be, by tacking it on to H.B. 86, that revised the limit on the gallons of spirituous liquor that a micro-distillery may manufacture each year, and added their marijuana proposal onto that bill today, bypassing the normal process of creating a separate bill.

Ohio Republicans are Fascists.
---------------------------------------------------
Ohio Republicans propose nixing home grow, increasing taxes in sweeping changes to legal marijuana
...and so it begins
Fairfield, #Ohio City Council bans recreational marijuana dispensaries from opening
In a 6-1 vote, the council chose to prohibit any cultivation, processing or dispensing of adult-use #cannabis
Nearly 58% of voters in Fairfield voted to pass recreational #marijuana use back in November. 34 out of its 38 precincts voted to pass it. #Issue2 passed in Ohio with 57% of the vote
Clueless vice mayor says new ban is the voters will.
Republicans don't care what voters want. Voter specially passed Issue 2 permitting limited home #marijuana cultivation for personal use. The Ohio #GOP are protecting their donors, corporate #Pot growers and sellers.
They also want to increase the tax rate.
They want to fast track pass it & get DeWine to sign it before Dec 7th legalization.
#SoundOff Ohio!
Ohio Senate Republicans propose banning home grown marijuana and other changes to legal marijuana #Issue2 #Ohio
In response to the Ohio GOP's attempts to thwart democracy: I choose my own way to burn.

Tell Ohio Lawmakers to Respect Voters and Leave Issue 2 Alone
https://norml.org/act/tell-ohio-lawmakers-to-respect-voters-and-leave-issue-2-alone/
Ohio House Republicans introduce two bills to tweak Issue 2, marijuana law.
DeWine and others want something passed hurriedly by next week, Dec 7th when use and home cultivating becomes legal.
Some, including Gov #DeWine, want to make #issue2 impotent, without being accused of repealing. Things like letting local communities not only ban the commercial sale of #marijuana but to ban use of it in private homes. #ohio
Ohio Republican Lawmaker Files Bill To Allow Cities To Ban Marijuana Use And Home Grow One Week Before Legalization Takes Effect because "voters didn’t fully grasp" what they voted for.
Republicans are saying the 57% of the Ohio voters who voted for #OhioIssue2 #marijuana legalization are too stupid to know what they voted for.
DeWin lying again
Ohio Gov. DeWine calls for regulations on recreational marijuana after passage of Issue 2
He says, ""We've already seen an uptick in the number of children going to our emergency rooms because they ingested, they ate what looked to them to be a brownie, what looked to them to be a cookie."
You lying bastard. Issue 2 doesn't go in effect for 30 days and then there is the formation of the commission, rules, etc. #issue2 #marijuana #Ohio #ohioissue2

#Issue1 protecting women's access to #Abortion passed in #Ohio, as did #Issue2 making #Marijuana #RecreationalMarijuana legal & regulating it like alcohol & tobacco. The passage of these ballot measures is a good sign for progress.
#issue2 Putting the “high” in Ohio!
2/ Issue 2 was about more than using legalized #Marijuana
It will help curb the disproportionate arrest and conviction of Black Ohioans.
Black people are 3.4 times more likely to be arrested for marijuana possession than white people in Ohio.

#Issue2 passed. What do you think Republicans going to do now?
The new law taxes #Cannabis at 10%, est $300mil yearly in taxes. 36% of that is targeted to go to social equity and jobs programs to those who have experienced past disproportionate enforcement of marijuana-related laws. Guess what #race that is?
Days before Election Day Republican Senate President Matt Huffman said he would seek to make changes targeting that provision if it passes.

I feel as if a heavy weight has been lifted off my shoulders this morning. I'm so proud of my fellow Ohioans! Here's to hoping we can start turning this state around for the better!
