Vote Yes on this bill if you want more dental care in low-income areas, 500-foot buffers for marijuana sites near parks, child care, and schools, stronger training for marijuana doctors, smoother Early Steps transitions for kids, quick license suspensions when a provider is arrested for murder, and a free autism training with stipends.

Organizations that support this bill may include public health groups, children’s disability advocates, dental associations serving Medicaid patients, autism organizations, and local governments that want stricter rules on where medical marijuana sites can go.

Vote No on this bill if you want fewer limits on marijuana facility locations, to avoid automatic license suspensions based on arrest, to keep current dental loan rules without extra duties, and to stop new state requirements on Early Steps and autism training.

Organizations that oppose this bill may include medical marijuana businesses and patient access groups, civil liberties groups concerned about suspending licenses after an arrest, and some dental providers who dislike added volunteer and service requirements.
