Hawaii House Speaker Joseph Souki (D-8) Friday introduced a bill to legalize the possession of marijuana by adults and create a system of taxed and regulated legal marijuana commerce. The measure, House Bill 150, would allow people 21 and over to possess up to an ounce and grow an as yet unspecified number of plants in a secure location.

The long-standing Hawaii THC Ministry's Rev. Roger Christie was refused bail after being arrested for 100 plants. The U.S. Attorney stated that he is a threat to society because "Mr. Christie listens to no one but himself, that's why he is a danger to the community".

Don't let bill SB2141 die! Representative Ryan Yamane, Chair of the House Committee on Health, still has not agreed to hear SB2141, a bill which would make important updates to Hawaii's current medical marijuana program.
