>Gov. Christie: I won’t force N.J. towns to allow medical marijuana facilities
“They use this library,” said Holt, who used the library on Thursday to announce two pieces of library-related legislation he’s trying to enact into law.
And if that means ultimately vetoing a bill — sponsored by a fellow Republican — that would prevent communities from using zoning laws to keep the medical pot business from moving in, Christie said he’ll do it.
Christie today was asked about a bill Assemblyman Declan O’Scanlon (R-Monmouth) said he intends to introduce that would include marijuana under the Right to Farm Act, which “protects responsible commercial farmers from public and private nuisance actions and unduly restrictive municipal regulations,” according to the state Agriculture Department website.
