SACRAMENTO — California lawmakers took a historic first step toward legalizing marijuana when an Assembly committee approved legislation that would put the drug on the open market as a regulated and taxed product.

Almost simultaneous with the passage, however, the bill died — for now. With a Jan. 22 deadline nearing for approving legislation from last year and no agreement to take it up in the Health Committee, where it must go before it reaches the Assembly floor, the author of the bill, Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, D-San Francisco, has vowed to reintroduce it.

“This is a significant vote because it legitimizes the quest for debate, legitimizes the quest for discussion,” Ammiano said. “This is far from over. Not only did we get it out of public safety, but members are now willing to say, yes, this is worthy of discussion.”

Advocates hailed the narrow passage of the bill, AB390 — it was approved by the Assembly Public Safety Committee on a 4-3 vote — as a major breakthrough that will lead to a national legalization movement.

“This is the formal beginning of the end of marijuana prohibition in the United States,” said Stephen Gutwillig, director of the Drug Policy Alliance Network.

The legislation, AB390, drew fierce opposition from law enforcement groups and anti-drug advocates, who said it would empower drug cartels, make it more available to youths and send the wrong message about drug tolerance.

“We’re going to legalize marijuana and tax it and then educate our kids about the harms of drugs? You gotta be kidding me,” said Assemblyman Danny Gilmore, R-Hanford, a retired CHP officer of 30 years. “This is a classic example of the slippery slope. What’s next? Are we going to legalize methamphetamines or cocaine?”

Ammiano dismissed what he described as “alarmist” views of opponents, saying the state should take heed of the growing movement in California toward legalization. A group has collected enough signatures to place legalization on the November ballot, and Ammiano and others said it was important that lawmakers control the details of the policy.

The bill would remove all penalties in California law on cultivation, transportation, sale, purchase, possession, or use of marijuana, natural THC, or paraphernalia for persons over the age of 21.

N.J. lawmakers OK medical pot
TRENTON, N.J., Jan. 11 (UPI) — Both houses of the New Jersey Legislature Monday approved a measure allowing medical marijuana (OOTC:MJNA) use and the governor has said he will sign the bill.

The Assembly approved the bill 48-14 and the Senate voted 25-13 in favor, The (Newark, N.J.) Star-Ledger reported. Gov. Jon Corzine has said he would sign the measure before leaving office Jan. 19, the newspaper said.

The “Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana” bill is scheduled to take effect in six months. While it would make New Jersey the 14th state to legalize the use of marijuana for medical purposes, its backers said during the legislative debate it would be the toughest medical marijuana law in the United States, the newspaper said.

New Jersey residents would not be permitted to cultivate their own marijuana and criminal background checks would be required for designated care givers to acquire pot on behalf of severely ill patients.

One of the measure’s sponsors, Assemblyman Reed Gusciora, said New Jersey should not “make criminals out of our very sick and terminally ill.”

“It does not make sense for many of New Jersey’s residents to suffer when there is a viable way to ease their pain,” Gusciora said. “But this is a responsible bill with enough oversight to prevent the abuses that have been reported in other states.”

An opponent of the measure, Assemblyman John Rooney, said there were “too many loopholes.”

“There are other drugs,” he said. “There are many ways to relieve pain.”

LOS ANGELES, CA, Dec. 21, 2009 (Marketwire) –

LOS ANGELES, CA — (Marketwire) — 12/21/09 — Medical Marijuana, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: MJNA) endorsed today the unprecedented act of President Obama signing into federal law the removal of restrictions on the use of medical marijuana in the nation’s capitol, which underscores MJNA’s foresight in becoming the first US public company to emerge, providing solutions to this revolutionary growth industry.

On Thursday, December 10th, the U.S. House of Representatives approved a $1.1 trillion omnibus spending measure which included a measure that provides federal funding for the District of Columbia’s medical marijuana program. This was quickly followed in an unusual Sunday vote of the Senate. Although the District’s citizens had overwhelmingly approved the use of medical marijuana in a referendum in 1998, it had been languishing due to restrictions placed on it by Congress. A House-Senate conference committee agreed to remove a handful of controversial, long-standing riders from the D.C. budget, including language that had effectively banned medical marijuana use (the so-called “Barr Amendment”).

In acknowledgement of this ground breaking enactment and in furtherance of its continuing vision, Medical Marijuana Inc is pleased to announce the Nationwide Launch of its Educational Seminar series beginning Jan 16 & 17, 2010 in Los Angeles, CA. Tickets can be acquired via http://MedicalMarijuanaInc.com

Don’t miss our educational seminars with great speakers who are industry leaders and insiders. A wide range of topics will be addressed in a formal but fun and entertaining way.

Tax Collection

The Stored Value Platform System will provide verifiable solutions to manage the difficult task of revenue and taxation collection. The “Point of Sale” (POS) system will recognize the dispensary’s tax ID number, state and local tax rates and then provide “Automated Clearing House” (ACH) settlement of the taxes to the proper financial institutions. The customers of the dispensary are issued a plastic debit card or medical revenue card. The ease of access to certifiably secure transactions lessens the risk of loss at each level of the transaction.

Internal Management

All collectives/dispensaries in the U.S. are cash businesses. This presents a number of challenges. Dispensary owners risk employee theft and possible competition for sales with unsupervised employees. Our stored value card also eliminates the risks of carrying cash. For the investor looking to open more than one dispensary, this card allows him the ease of mind of knowing all transactions are accounted for in all of his locations.

Medical Marijuana, Inc. – Tax Remittance Card Flier

Medical Marijuana Inc (PINKSHEETS: MJNA) has entered into discussions with a publicly traded coffee distribution company for licensing of its patent pending tax remittance solution. Medical Marijuana Inc’s tax remittance technology was originally designed to be industry and product neutral; it can be implemented in any industry. Execution of this agreement will launch phase one of Medical Marijuana Inc’s multi-industry implementation strategy.

Once daily tax remittance becomes standard practice in the medical marijuana industry, government officials are likely to have a strong interest in implementing Medical Marijuana Inc’s patent pending technology across all industries. The windfall to the government could be enormous, with sales taxes being delivered to government coffers on a daily basis versus the currently accepted practice of submitting taxes every ninety days or more.

Tax Collection

The Stored Value Platform System will provide verifiable solutions to manage the difficult task of revenue and taxation collection. The “Point of Sale” (POS) system will recognize the dispensary’s tax ID number, state and local tax rates and then provide “Automated Clearing House” (ACH) settlement of the taxes to the proper financial institutions. The customers of the dispensary are issued a plastic debit card or medical revenue card. The ease of access to certifiably secure transactions lessens the risk of loss at each level of the transaction.

Internal Management

All collectives/dispensaries in the U.S. are cash businesses. This presents a number of challenges. Dispensary owners risk employee theft and possible competition for sales with unsupervised employees. Our stored value card also eliminates the risks of carrying cash. For the investor looking to open more than one dispensary, this card allows him the ease of mind of knowing all transactions are accounted for in all of his locations.

Solutions

Medical Marijuana, Inc. is developing a suite of solutions to deliver an efficient and secure infrastructure for the Medical Marijuana Industry that will provide the tools to industry operators to effectively manage their businesses with the confidence that they are in full compliance.

ABOUT MEDICAL MARIJUANA, INC.
Medical Marijuana, Inc. is the first public company to recognize the vast and unequaled opportunities that exist in the rapidly expanding medical marijuana industry. The scientific recognition of marijuana as a powerful medicine, and as an effective, non-narcotic pain reliever, has brought legalized marijuana use to the forefront of mainstream discussion thus opening the door for safe and lucrative investment opportunities.

Medical Marijuana, Inc. has developed a suite of turnkey business and management solutions for the fledgling medical marijuana collective industry in California. The growing number of other states that have legalized the use of medical marijuana have yet to establish a system for the legalized commercial production and sale of the medicine. These regions are also strong potential targets for Medical Marijuana, Inc.’s products and services down the road. It is likely that other states will follow California’s basic lead as the Golden State more specifically defines the regulations and protocol that are shaping the supply-side of the legal medical marijuana sector.
