Medical Marijuana—How will it affect us? • Minors can be medical marijuana cardholders with 2 recommendations & parental permission • Schools can not discriminate against card holders for admission or employment • Cardholders can come to school, work under the influence of medical marijuana • Cardholders can not be prosecuted for having metabolites in the body while in class or at work • Minor users can use during the school day, 500 yards off campus without penalty • Cardholders entitled to 5 oz/mo ±400 joints • Marijuana already is #2 behind alcohol for use—wait until AYS 2012!!!
