Just wanted to up date you on the action in Honolulu...
SB 2213 SD 2 passed the House Public Safety Committee...9 voted yes, of which 5 were with "reservations" (which is not great), and only 1 no. And it passed the House Health Committee 5 to 1, with 3 excused.
The bill was amended to SB 2213 SD 2 HB 1 (compassion centers must be more than 50 miles apart, and more than 2 miles away from school, reduces the $30 tax to $15, and a few other changes) and is being passed to the Judiciary !
Testimony was overwhelming in support. You can read it here...

Make sure to check out the lame and tired excuses submitted by the police and prosecutors.
There was a huge increase in the number of letters written compared the decrim bill just a week ago...great result...
Thanks to all who submitted testimony. We will need you all to write more again soon. Let's keep making noise!
