Marijuana bill vote today in Washington State Legislature
Last week, the House Public Safety Committee heard public testimony about HB 1177, which would decriminalize misdemeanor marijuana possession, and HB 2401, which would regulate marijuana like alcohol.
The committee vote on both of these bills is scheduled for today, January 20, at 1:30 p.m. If a bill fails to make it out of committee, it is done for the year.
What: Committee vote on HB 1177 and HB 2401
When: Wednesday, January 20 at 1:30 p.m.
Where: Hearing Room B, John L. O'Brien Building, Capitol Campus

At last week's hearing, HB 2401 co-sponsor Rep. Roger Goodman indicated a desire to amend that bill to allow for home cultivation for personal and medical use. Rep. Kirk Pearson made several negative comments about President Obama's own administration saying marijuana is dangerous. Rep. Brad Klippert asked a question about the American Medical Association, reading off a list of health organizations that "reject smoked marijuana as medicine." And Rep. Charles Ross asked a number of questions that seemed to indicate his support.
