The Coalition for Medical Marijuana--New Jersey will be hosting a Cannabis Community march and rally from Trenton City Hall to the NJ State House Annex on April 20th, 2018. Anonymous—HempSector @HempSector will lead the march.

We will gather together to support cannabis rights for all people at the capital city. April 20th is International Peter Tosh Day. Peter Tosh was a human rights activist who wrote and performed the iconic song, “Legalize It.” We will celebrate the progress we have made. We will discuss further actions needed by our community and our legislators to make medicinal marijuana affordable for patients and to stop arrests of all cannabis users. Speakers will share information about the medicinal marijuana program, prospects of legalization, and ways to get involved.

At the State House Annex, marchers will join the Sativa Cross podcast to hear educational and inspirational testimony by invited speakers, followed by musical performances. We want to end the stigma on cannabis. Please join us in standing up for justice for people and cannabis!

Rally for John Wilson a success: Video

Somerville – Volunteers from CMMNJ and NORML-NJ demonstrated in front of the Somerset County Courthouse in support of MS patient John Wilson. Jury selection has begun in his trial where he faces 15-35 years for growing seventeen cannabis plants to treat his MS. Without healthcare it was something that brought him relief.

Although the rally was a success John continues to face an overzealous prosecution and a frightening potential sentence.

CMMNJ has rallied in support of John since his case emerged. When the judge in the trial barred John from ever telling the jury that he has MS the outrage was instant. Two state Senators have now asked for an Executive Pardon.

Thank you to all of the motivated CMMNJ volunteers who attended the rally! CMMNJ Board of Directors in attendance: Ken Wolski, Jim Miller, Ed Hannaman, Jim Bissell and Chris Goldstein. John’s trial is continuing, if you would like to participate in the daily presence at the courthouse, please contact us: ohamkrw@aol.com or media@cmmnj.org

Please send a letter to Governor Corzine and Attorney General Anne Milgram.
