"I would support this change in state law. Ohio is in desperate need of new revenue streams, particularly for public education and transit. I see no reason that marijuana should not be legalized and thus, regulated and taxed.” -Ohio Cannabis Activist Network

“I am neutral. I would have to see the proposed bill, first. It is not a difficult process to do, now. The hardest part is obtaining the required amount of qualified signatures, which is the same process for anyone who runs for political office. I certainly wouldn’t want to make the process harder, and it’s pretty simple, now.”

“I support the legalization of marijuana. I believe it would be a great opportunity to use supposedly one "old problem" to fix a very real new problem. Once legalized, marijuana can be regulated and taxed. The new state tax revenue can be used for new drug treatment centers and initiatives. Which would also cut down on our non-violent drug related prison population and help fight our opioid epidemic.” -Ohio Cannabis Activist Network
