Utah Patients Coalition Approved to Begin
Collecting Signatures for 2018 Medical Cannabis Initiative
SALT
LAKE CITY, Utah - August 11, 2017 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Utah Patients
Coalition has received approval from Lt. Governor Spencer Cox to begin
gathering signatures to qualify for the November 2018 ballot. After holding 10
public hearings across the state and meeting with various state departments and
stakeholders, Utah Patients Coalition will now proceed to collect the more than
113,000 required signatures to place doctor-approved access to medical cannabis
on the ballot for Utah voters to approve.
In
response to feedback from state officials, Utah Patients Coalition made two
technical changes to the initiative language: (1) striking a short tax
deduction provision that would have required federal tax law to be interpreted
and implemented by state tax authorities, an issue that advocates plan to
revisit with the State Tax Commission and the legislature after the initiative
becomes law; and (2) establishing a limit on the amount of medical cannabis
that a patient or caregiver can transport, bringing it in line with a common
30-day restriction on pharmacy drugs.
