"Will the Weed truly be Freed?" -
A Detroit Resident with a vision at the Northwest Activities Center
We are hoping that fees are reasonable for these licenses and that people are safe in these places of business. Just like any other business, code compliance with the Detroit Fire Marshall regarding exits and extinguishers are a must. For places that have growing operations the city wants the electricity to be code compliant, meaning that there will be opportunities for electricians to keep places safe from burning down because of an electrical fire.
Concerns for law enforcement are a valid government id and keeping
the peace therefore, the long delayed picture on the Medical Marijuana card
must be addressed in Lansing. People who have Facebook and Twitter accounts
and; have a Michigan Drivers License cannot use the excuse that a picture on a
card gives Government too much information.
Saying No to Jim and Jane Crow!
We also would appreciate that opportunities will be diverse and
include people of all racial, ethnic, gender, and other backgrounds to have an
equal chance to participate in the business end instead of being a statistic in
the legal system.
Educational Opportunities:
Schools that participate in agriculture education would be
encouraged to thrive in Michigan. Science, Technology, Engineering and Math are skills that can be developed by investing in growing and manufacturing projects.

House Bills 5439 and 5440 will authorize agriculture resources to
grow and manufacture products from Industrial Hemp which is the male cannabis
plant. The male plant is a non-intoxicant version of the Marijuana plant.
Michigan farmers and agriculture concerns will be able to grow this plant for
products like paper, fuel, auto body parts and many other things. When
prosperity from green jobs takes effect, it will be because of people like
Everett Swift of the Michigan Industrial Hemp Education and Marketing Project, www.mihemp.org,
and Stephen Sharpe, esteemed board member of the Michigan Chapter of the
National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana laws www.minorml.org. These two men are responsible
for working with Michigan’s agricultural community to make Industrial Hemp use
a reality in Michigan.
In order to get these bills enacted we must pass our differences
across party lines. From now until next Friday, you must call and email bomb
the Michigan Legislature at www.house.mi.gov about passing these bills to Gov. Rick Snyder for his
signature into law.
