    I have terminal chron's disease and collites. I also suffer from chronic pain and chronic migraines and sever anxiety along with adhd. This should be passed like neighboring state. Marijuana should be legalized because not just because of chrons but all the cancer patients. And other people diseases that can benefit from this. Plus the state can benefit financially. It's a smart decision. And the oriole it would help would be tremendous.

    Marijuana should be legalized in the state of Indiana there are alot of benefits from it. Marijuana has been used long before now to heal and other purposes. It could help people with cancer,depression,anxiety,eat disorders,ect. It would help the financial situation that has burden everyone. And would bring money that we need for jobs and transportation for our children ect. Legalize marijuana 2016.

    I believe Marijuana should be legal in the state of Indiana because it has no known health risks, people could benefit from it medically, it would cut down on the crime rate as well as save Indiana all of the money it spends to prosecute those who have small possession charges and so fourth. It would also bring in alot of tax revenue for our state just like Colorado and other states that have legalized recreational use, the tax revenue could pay for things we desperately need as communities and as a state like education and to help with the herion epidemic. There are so many reasons to legalize recreational use of Marijuana and literally no reason at all not to! So pass a bill to legalize Marijuana in 2016!!!

    I am a teenager who suffers from depression and medical marijuana should be legal so that people like me should not have to feel like a zombie because of the medicine that is prescribed to me.

    Ok for starters:i am writing this in hopes that someone in congress will read these plea's From indiana citizens.our current governor does Not speak for the people of indiana,and if he did he Would've atleast had a hearing or public vote on this matter.as you seen last year he didn't even want it on his desk.there are many people that would benefit from medical marijuana,yet some how all that is over looked,we pay taxes and have no say in this is absurd.i can write the most compelling post and in my eyes when i wonder how far it will go,who will read these,and even consider for standing up for its citizens.let alone who will take our voices serious.

    I know several people in other states that have completely cut out their use of prescription pain pills and anxiety medications because they are able to smoke Marijuana instead. I believe it would save lives if people in Indiana could legally use it. It would help reduce prescription drug abuse because it would take some off the streets and also cut back on the over dose deaths.

    We think that they should make weed legal for everyone that is the age 21 and older we smoke everyday and we don't plan to stop so instead of throwing people in jail for it make IT like legal it HELPS in everyday life. Instead you guys rather let beer on every corner and that everyone can go get then end up killing themself or other people. Beer promotes viliness. Where weed makes u relaxs

    It simply isnt going to happen in Indiana, there are too many entities such as Lilly that endorse our governor "mike pence" as well as 50 yo prejudices that are evident today. I myself have epilepsy, my doctor insist on a xanex supplement to make up where the other medicine doesn't take care of, The medical industrial complex cant compete against all natural, "working" alternatives, so they will do absolutely everything in their power and pocket book to influence the decisions of our states Governor and his colleges. Its sad, i wrote Pence on my concerns on Medical Marijuana and got nothing but a forum letter condoning the use of illicit drugs. You hear me PENCE your a greedy, selfish,blind, Governor that allows his biased views to determine his lawmaking.

    We think that marijuana needs to be legal for anyone that feels the need to do so. If not just for a bad day. Its not right to turn people like us into criminal. Just because we feel the need to partake with marijuana. I mean my husband has ptsd and a few other one's. Instead of taking pills that his doctor gives him he smokes marijuana instead. I must tell the true so do I.instead of drinking and getting in a car and hurtting anyone or are self we sit at are home not hurting anyone but Evan knowing this if the police ask to come in are home we will go to jail or maybe prison for something like marijuana. It helps alote of people we know to they are just scard to come out with it afraid of losing there place of power to the lawmakers. Do what's right and legalize for anyone over 21of age with a I.D. It would be more money for the city's instead of to the drugs dealer's but just know at the end of the day we are adults and we are going to keep smoking marijuana no matter what. IT HELPS nothing going bad in Colorado they are doing it they really are doing it we drove 2600 miles just to have the rights to smoke marijuana it was a long long long drive but it was the best 4days we ever had you know for it to be a bad drug everyone down there was so so so nice have you seen what they get in taxes a year Just from weed but then we had to go back home and be a criminal for doing the same thing we got to deal with very very nice people to get are marijuana and here at home in Indiana we get are weed from man with guns it's not safe but that's what we are willing to do to get marijuana so give US the right's that we should have had the whole time so how can you not give it to everyone because of my god your God and everyone one's God gave it to US and yet alcohol store's on every corner and it's man made. We are finally willing to come out with what we do to try to get are New lawmakers to fix the mistakes of the old lawmakers before them made if everyone came out and told the truth you would be surprise who and how meney do smoke marijuana but they will never tell the truth afraid of being a made a criminal but that's all we got to say for now me and my husband has been put in jail for marijuana and turn into criminal that's all we got to say for now but it's as if they are not willing to listen to anyone got has to say
