Having the freedom to choose cannabis, whether for medical use or personal use, is one of the hallmarks of the Libertarian Party. We believe that individuals know best when it comes to what treatments to pursue and what medicine and products to consume. When people are empowered to make decisions for themselves
and are not restricted by government prohibition, they are happier and healthier.
To date, 27 states have either decriminalized or legalized cannabis use, and in states that haven’t, the support is there. According to the University of Wyoming Survey and Analysis Center (WYSAC), 85% of Wyoming’s population are in favor of legalizing medical marijuana. Seventy-five percent of Wyoming residents support decriminalization. It’s time to let their voices be heard. We want to see the people of Wyoming set free.
"I couldn’t just be someone who used it. I had to become an advocate for other patients like me."
Christine’s story is incredible, but in many ways her experience is not unique. Laws in more than a dozen states prohibit cannabis for medicinal use, while the requirements in the states that do permit it can be so restrictive as to place medical marijuana out of reach for those who desperately need it. Cannabis continues to be a Schedule I drug under Federal law, which could still earn one charged with possessing it decades in prison and up to hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines.
