Attorney General releases statement underlining his concerns with the Massey-Romer medical marijuana legislation

DENVER — Colorado Attorney General John Suthers released a letter to members of the Colorado Assembly today summarizing his position on medical marijuana legislation, which is scheduled to be presented before a House committee next week. Suthers’ letter underlines his and the law enforcement community’s concerns that the Massey-Romer bill clearly goes beyond what the voters intended when they passed Amendment 20 in 2000.

Due to scheduling conflicts, Suthers may be unavailable to attend next week’s hearing on the bill.
