Oregon State Legislative update for 2011 session
As expected, the Omnibus Cannabis bill has been drafted, and dropped on the
desks of the Co-Speakers of the House. Designated HB 3664, We expect the bill
to be referred to the House Rules Committee shortly. Other committees that
would normally hear this bill are now "closed" for new legislation.
Rep.
Olson had to use one of his two "Priority Bills" to get this introduced, and
that is a sign of his seriousness in sponsoring this legislation.
The two Co-Chairs of the House Rules Committee are Rep. Andy Olson, who put
this measure together, and Rep. Dave Hunt, a Democrat. Both Co-Chairs must
agree before this bill will get a hearing. We strongly suggest urging your
membership to contact Rep. Hunt to ask him to deny this bill a hearing, or get it assigned to Greenlicks Health Care Committee. In
addition to the negative clauses of the bill, here are talking points about
the bill's process:
* This bill was crafted in secret
* This bill is circumventing the normal process for a bill that should
have been considered by the more-knowledgeable House Health Care and / or
House Judiciary Committees
* Rep. Olson rejected OMPI offers of informational briefings, and
rejected all OMPI suggestions for positive changes to the OMMA - he has not
been willing to work with us productively.
* Similar bills have already been heard in the House and Senate, where
they failed to move forward - there is no broad political will to change the
OMMA this session
The primary contact person here is Dave Hunt, Olson's co-chair of Rules. If co-chairs do not agree, there is not action. We need to convince Hunt not to work on the bill even if it gets an obligatory hearing in that committee. We can also get it assigned to Greenlicks Health Care Committee, though it may not be. You can contact Rep. Hunt at 503-986-1900 or by email at -
rep.davehunt@state.or.us
Other members of the House Rules Committee can also be contacted. You can
find a list of those Committee members here:
http://www.leg.state.or.us/committees/
Also - Health Care Committee,
Contact co-speakers here: rep.brucehanna@state.or.us ... and ... rep.arnieroblan@state.or.us -
Also, write your own legislator, even if a sponsor of this bill and let them know you will not support this bill!
