I am starting a petition for the Rural New Mexico Cannabis Patients to have better access to quality medicine. The high prices,poor quality, limited access and even denied access in some cases to rural medical cannabis patients is against the " Lynn and Erin Compassionate Use Act" . With the right to have collectives we give the power back to the medical cannabis patients of New Mexico with strain variety,lower prices, and better access to quality medicine. Collectives will give every New Mexico medical cannabis patients a choice to use their 16 plants to help them supply their own medicine. Many New Mexico patients do not have the ability to grow their own medicine because of many factors including physical (to weak or unable to maintain a garden),financial, time, space and knowledge of growing and producing cannabis to a medical grade. My favorite of them all the is rule placed by the Department of Health that prohibits Medical cannabis patients to use their Personal production Licenses unless one has informed the landlord that you are a medical cannabis patient and they give written permissions to grow at the residents. If you do not you are denied the right to grow your plants, and then you might be forced to the black market because rural patients do not have access in the majority of cases. So, please sign this petition and help better the lives of thousands of rural New Mexico Cannabis patients.

I shouldn't have to tell a complete stranger (my landlord) that I'm growing medical cannabis. It's puts me and others living there in danger.

I live in Tierra Amarilla and don't have access to quality meds without making a long drive which is hard on my PTSD and pain levels I also cannot grow because I live in low income housing really makes it difficult

I have friends with similar issues in rural areas! Like Alamogordo New Mexico no doctor in town will prescribe medical marijuana to any patient! Nor is there a dispensary close by other than Ruidoso or Las Cruces. I have personally experienced the denial of production license because what landlord in their right mind is going to consider signing something like that! And if you dare ask you run the risk of getting kicked out!

It's really time to get rid of this insane monopoly the supposed nonprofit producers have on the state. They are not about compassionate access or we would've seen it already. An we haven't. Only a game of monopoly where the pot barons are trying to make their stake in the game before recreational. Maybe even smaller licenses like 25-50 plants for a lot less buy in. Then put a limit like 200 producers. Something really high in mumber. Also if one folds, the license is then recycled and reused. No more access deserts!!!

I'm signing this because we need collectives in NM. Especially in rural areas where they have almost no choices for their medicine since there are no or few LNPP's that don't have access to what they need. That goes against the L&ECUA. Make it right.

As a patient and licensed personal producer living in New Mexico I feel that collectives would be very helpful to the NM Medical cannabis patients living in rural areas.
