have been following the Montana Medical Marijuana issue. and todays article can be cleared up. if people have questions about the new law they can view it online or call 4064443111 Governor Schweitzers office. They clarified that none of this law takes effect until july 1st which it clearly states. It also clearly states that doctors may contine to issue recomendations for a card until June 1st. All patients who currently hold a card under Initiative 148 are Grandfathered in until it expires and need to reapply under new statute. Section 31 TRANSITION SB423. There is no confusion Senator Essman should have learned how to write law even our governor says its poorly written. Even so, It has to be followed the way it is written. I called and Helena clarified for me the above issues. Senator Essman is wrong to say card cant keep bein issued. His law says they can. Its his fault for rushing to fix a problem that didnt need fixed and not writing it correctly.

This country has much more important problems than whether any of its citizens smoke pot.
