US HI: PUB LTE: Changes Restrict Access To Marijuana

Honolulu Star-Advertiser, 30 Apr 2013 – State Sen. Josh Green, chairman of the Senate Health Committee, is responsible for some very hateful, non-compassionate changes to the bill on the compassionate use of marijuana. One of the changes made last week by Green would require a primary-care physician to recommend and certify patients and caregivers. We all know how few doctors there are available in Hawaii, not to mention their fear to recommend cannabis due to intimidation and exposure by Keith Kamita and the state Narcotics Enforcement Division.
