US ME: State’s Medical Marijuana Rulemaking Comes Under Fire

Portland Daily Sun, 14 Aug 2012 – A legislator who championed amendments to Maine’s medical marijuana law as a way to bring it in line with voter intent said she hopes the state doesn’t make the same mistakes again. After a public hearing Monday on a controversial rule making that’s now underway, Rep. Deb Sanderson, R-Chelsea, said the state should not implement rules that are more restrictive and divergent from the intent of the citizen’s initiative legalizing medical marijuana passed in 2009.
