MADISON: Analysis of records released by State Sen. Julie Lassa (D-Milladore) regarding SB368/AB554 the Jacki Rickert Medical Marijuana Act (JRMMA) reveal overwhelming support for the JRMMA from constituents who wrote or called to express their opinions.

While I have not yet gone sheet by sheet to get a total of contacts in support, considering there were 293 pages and some listed phone logs with multiple contacts that there are conservatively over 200 contacts from ordinary citizens relaying their support. I plan to do a second article that has better numbers and more details. “In Favor” was noted time and time again on phone logs and messages provided by Lassa’s office.

Included among released emails was a message from a Central Wisconsin local elected official terming Sen. Lassa’s actions “GUTLESS” and closing with, “Shame on you.”

The only opposition in the records release came from the Marshfield Clinic, Waushara County Sheriff David Peterson and a Marshfield police officer.
