Are you aware that the New Hampshire Legislature is considering legalizing recreational use of marijuana? Do you wonder what marijuana legalization would mean to you, your family, our fellow citizens, and New Hampshire? Will legalization make us safer? Will legalization reduce New Hampshire’s drug crisis? Why should marijuana use be illegal in the first place? What is the experience in states which have legalized recreational use of marijuana?
The public is invited to hear these and audience questions addressed by a panel of supporters and opponents of HB 481, the marijuana legalization bill, at the August 21, 2019 Lakes Region TEA Party meeting at 7 PM at the Moultonborough Public Library.

– TBA, supporting legalization
The Lakes Region TEA Party meeting begins at 7 PM at the Moultonborough Library, 4 Holland Street, Moultonborough, NH. The public is invited to listen and participate respectfully in the Q&A sessions.
