Maryland District 20 Del David Moon of Montgomery County (photo courtesy of md house of delegates site)

I have been reaching out to local politicians to see who is and is not commited to permitting patients to grow their own without turning into felons. One of the first to respond was David Moon. He is clearly an ally and has some useful advise for those of us who want change. With his permission I am publishing his message:

“Yes, I’m supportive of homegrow and have included it in all of my marijuana legalization bills. I think it’ll be a tricky sell based on conversations with some colleagues, so I’ve urged colleagues on the committee dealing with health care (note I’m on Judiciary) to try and get it done on the medical side. It seems hard to imagine we’ll get recreational homegrow if we don’t have it for medical patients. In any case, keep pushing on — we need folks to weigh in!

Thanks for staying engaged,Del. David Moon”

So, listen to the man people! Please contact your 3 state delegates, 1 state senator and Gov. Hogan. During election time we will need to support the elected officials, such as Del Moon who are willing to take a stand and support us!
