Lawmakers proposed Senate Bill 284, which would have prosecutors in Indiana elect a board to oversee complaints of noncompliance.
INDIANAPOLIS — Marijuana is illegal in Indiana and a near total ban on abortion is on hold. However, Marion Country prosecutor Ryan Mears has went on the record saying he won't go after people who have small amounts of marijuana or doctors that perform abortions.To address this issue, lawmakers proposed Senate Bill 284, which would have prosecutors in Indiana elect three board members to oversee complaints of noncompliance.
“I don’t want to be in this position,” State Senator Aaron Freeman, a Republican representing district 32 and author of the bill, said. “I want to make laws and I expect the executive to carry out the laws that we are making on behalf of the citizens.” The IPAC is supporting SB 284 even though they testified that they wouldn’t. They now say they understand where the legislature is coming from.
Another Marion County resident says she appreciates Mears’ attempt to stand up for the people and trying in whatever way he can to defy the laws that many disagree with.
