Man on a mission
/Now that the election is over, there is great anticipation for the upcoming TN General Assembly session in mid-January. We can say for sure that there will be a medical cannabis bill before both houses of the legislature.
There could not be a stronger advocate for medical cannabis than Rep. Jeremy Faison. He recently took a fact-finding trip to Colorado. There he met with law enforcement officers, medical professionals, and Tennesseans who re-located to CO for safe, legal access to medical cannabis. All of this has deeply strengthened his belief in the value of medical cannabis.
Rep. Faison documented his travels with a series of videos on his Facebook page. What he has created is a powerful resource demonstrating the reality of families, veterans, patients of all ages - all Tennesseans whose lives have been impacted by the fact that medical cannabis has not been available in their home state.
Here is one of the most powerful videos from this series https://goo.gl/3ntpkd. In it, Rep. Faison visits with a nurse who has seen the remarkable benefits to patients using medical cannabis. There are 8 more videos in this series https://goo.gl/rnCN7k on Jeremy's Facebook page. Highly recommended for educating yourself and others about this issue.
