Thomas Morahan
A Conservative Strategy on Marijuana
Advocates of legalizing medicinal marijuana in New York are now pinning their hopes on, of all people, conservatives.
Here's a pro-medicinal marijuana ad that appeared in a local Brooklyn paper this week, targeting Conservative-Republican state Senator Marty Golden, and featuring Joel Peacock, a member of the state’s Conservative Party.
The ad says that Peacock suffers from “chronic, severe pain“ from a 2001 car accident and that medicinal marijuana offers him effective and cheap relief.
The ad targeting Golden is one of eight ads aimed at Republican state Senators across New York, which also feature polling information that supporters say proves the bill is more popular among voters than lawmakers think.
The other state senators are Carl Marcellino Kemp Hannon, Dean Skelos, all from Long Island, Frank Padavan and Serph Maltese of Queens, Thomas Morahan of Rockland County and Dale Volker from upstate.
