RALEIGH, N.C. — Senate Republicans, trying to revive medical marijuana legalization in the final weeks of session, appeared to send a message to their counterparts in the House this week: take up our bill, if you want us to take up yours.
But it may have backfired for at least one member of the House GOP.
Rep. Mike Clampitt, who has been supportive of the bill in the past, told The News & Observer on Thursday he’s now solidly against it, after the Senate voted a day earlier to make unrelated legislation the House had sent over contingent on the passage of the medical marijuana bill.
