Letter: Prop 2 deal? What could go wrong?
(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) Supporters and opponents of Utah’s medical marijuana initiative joined with Utah Gov. Gary Herbert and legislative leaders Thursday, Oct. 4, 2018, at the Utah Capitol to announce a “shared vision” for cannabis policy.
The Proposition 2 "deal”? Given the LDS Church's newfound commitment to medical marijuana, the Legislature's track record of reneging on proposition buy-off deals, and the long-running circus of Utah liquor laws, what could possibly go wrong?
