*URGENT - URGENT - URGENT - URGENT - URGENT*
CALL THE SENATE HHS COMMITTEE!!!
*We need to defeat SB109* in Committee. If we do, this may stop
the onslaught of other bills coming from law enforcement. If SB109
passes, it may be the beginning of the end for patients' safe access
to their medicine in Colorado, as more and more restrictive bills
will be introduced.

Hearing on SB109
Wed., Jan. 27, 2010

Old Supreme Court Chambers

Please show up early to testify against this bill. SB109 is bad
for
patients because it:
- Raises the costs to patients by requiring extra exams and recordkeeping
- Raises the costs to patients by not allowing their previous medical
history to be used to determine whether they would benefit from
medical marijuana
- Restricts the rights of patients to use their own doctor
- Allows a Medical Review Board to override the decision of a qualified
physician that someone under 21 might benefit from the use of medical
marijuana.
- Is discriminatory, because no other medicine in the state is regulated
so harshly

Rob Corry's Analysis of SB109
Rob Corry's Spoof of SB109 replaces
the term "medical marijuana" with the word "abortion"
to show how discriminatory the bill is.
