Jeannine Lake (D - IN)
Comments
"Addiction is a problem involving public and private solutions, but starts with families talking and encouraging mental health assistance, Lake said. First-time drug offenders should not be sent to jail but enter rehabilitation, she said, and public funds should be used to build cohesive support systems."
"Lake was a large proponent of medical marijuana, so long as we could ensure those who were pregnant were not exposed to it, as she believed it could be detrimental to a developing fetus's health."
