MassCann has learned that Chairpersons Fargo and Sanchez of the Joint Committee on Public Health are likely the primary reason the Committee has not acted favorably on H. 2160 since the hearing on May 19, 2009Susan C. Fargo represents the Third Middlesex Senate District (Waltham, Bedford, Carlisle, Chelmsford, Concord, Lexington, precincts 3, 8 and 9, Lincoln, Sudbury, precincts 1 and 4, and Weston). She is the Senate Chair.
Jeffrey Sanchez represents the Fifteenth Suffolk House District (precinct 5 of the town of Brookline, and precincts 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 of ward 10 (Mission Hill/JP), precinct 6 of ward 11 (Roxbury), precincts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 and 9 of ward 19 (JP), and precincts 1, 2 and 4 of ward 20 (W. Roxbury), of the city of Boston, in the county of Suffolk. He is the House Chair.
As coincidence would have it, Susan Fargo probably read Epstein and Saunders: Legalize medicinal marijuana use in the Daily News Tribune on September 13. What she probably hasn't read is follow-up letters to the editor of that paper, and letters, e-mails and phone calls to her. If you live in her district, please DO IT!
As for Jeffrey Sanchez, he probably hasn't read the essay and hasn't gotten enough letters, e-mails and phone calls. If you live in his district, JUST DO IT!.
