I’d like to personally thank and congratulate DCMJ for spearheading Initiative 71 and making the text of that legislation and this, the permanent Social use ban, easily available to the public. If you’re interested in participating in DCMJ’s continuing fight for YOUR rights as a cannabis patient or enthusiast, check out their website.
