| |  |  | | - UPDATE ON MEDICAL MARIJUANA ISSUE AND COMMITTEE HEARING NOVEMBER 28, 2022
|
|
| | The the Lord has given us the gift of extra time to mobilize.
|
Yesterday, 11/22, the Mobile City Council held a public hearing regarding their proposed ordinance to opt-in and allow marijuana dispensaries in Mobile ("pot shops"). The recording of the meeting can be seen here: https://youtu.be/lQvoIpZI1_g
|
Rather than vote on the ordinance as planned for 11/29, the council moved their vote to December 13, which will also include a public hearing (speakers have 3 min). As it stands now, two are voting against and 5 are voting for. So we need to turn two of the council to our side. Praise be to God for this date change. It is an opportunity we cannot miss.
|
More importantly, there is a committee hearing THIS MONDAY, NOVEMBER 28 at 2:00 p.m. at the Government Plaza to allow for expert opinion. We need as many Mobile-area pastors to both attend the 11/28 meeting and then speak at the 12/13 meeting. In between these meetings, we need as many churches as possible to contact Mobile City councilmen and women.
|
Pastors and principals know all too well the devastation that drugs bring to their communities. Marijuana dispensaries will only worsen the problem. Please help encourage Mobile-area pastors to lead the way and stop the dispensaries.
