I have no way to find out the voting records of the State's politicians who voted for the current bill passed. Let's post them so when elections come we will know who not to vote for. Especially the one who thought of a 90 waiting period. Let's show them "of the people by the people" power. It would also be helpful if we could attain a greater percentage of voters in elections. Most elections are decided by less than fifty percent of people who could vote.

Found this one in a news report.

House Majority Leader Ray Rodrigues sponsored the legislation, and pushed for the smoking ban. He’s confident that the courts will uphold the law.

This is the part Morgan is contesting.

This report states trial proceeding.

This ruling was clear. It allows growing. It appears to all be hung up in court so far.

One thing is clear. The State has turned their backs on people who are suffering.

Yeah there is a lot of bull shit going on with the laws here . I work in the cannabis business here and the fucked up part is that the owners of these big cannabis companies don't want smoking either. It just easier to extract everything and sell indica, sativa, or cbd. A lot of the companies offer just that. It sucks in my opinion. I'm all for freeing up the market and giving patients the right to grow their own medicine in peace.

Just found this link of interest. Depends on who gets elected. There are people with vision and they need our support. Vote and encourage others to vote it is our only hope.

My Florida Green providing the facilities to provide the Medical marijuana card Sarasota and Medical Marijuana card Sunrise. To get any help please visit the site and get a connection with a doctor.
My main oppression with all this Medical whoopy is the fact I suffer several medical conditions. I have discussed them with my regular Doctor who offers little or no hope for medication. When I voted for medical here I guess I was dreaming it would be like other states where one could grow several plants. As it turned out the Politicians wanted to support Big Business and line their own pockets with money without any input from Doctors or medical research. They turned down the idea of a person growing their own medicine. I would have no problem seeing a Doctor who is not under the scrutiny of Politicians who think they know more than a Doctor. Furthermore, it should be like a real Doctor where one gets a prescription and goes directly to the pharmacy but no wait I have to wait 30 days for the State to gouge me for more money and twiddle my thumbs till I actually get medication. It just all seems more like the King squeezing the poor for his own benefit. Then on top of that I cannot depend on any dispensary to give me a quality product I can be happy with. I just wish I could go back in time and just buy from a reputable dealer as it was done in '70s. :wall:

I found this link answering my own question. It renumerated the votes posted in all Congressional bills. Truly I was disappointed to find a Nay vote in my district but was elated to see it pass.
