FOREWORD I have much pleasure in introducing the Lohit Distri<^ Gazetteer, the first of a series of District Gazetteers proposed to be brought out by the Government of Arunachal Pradesh. A'Gazetteer is a repository of care­ fully collected and systematically collated information on a wide range of subjects pertaining to a particular area. These information are of con­ siderable importance and interest. Since independence, Arunachal Pra­ desh has been making steady progress in various spheres. This north-east frontier comer of the country has, during these years, witnessed tremen­ dous changes in social, economic, political and cultural spheres. These changes are reflected in die Gazetteers. 1 hope that as a reflex of these changes, the Lohit District Gazetteer would prove to be quite useful not only to the administrators but also to researdi schplars and all those who are keen to know in detail about one of the districts of Arunachal Pradesh. Raj Niwas K. A. A. Raja Itanagar-791 111 Lieutenant Governor, Arunachal Pradesh October 5, i m Vili I should like to take this opportunity of expressing my deep sense of gratitude to Shri K; A.

Baker, Vice Chair Thursday, February 13, 2014 at 2:50 PM State Capitol, Conference Room 224 Chair Espero, Vice Chair Baker, and Members of the Committee: The Department of Public Safety supports SB 2402 which proposes to amend the definition of "marijuana" and "usable marijuana," and "adds a new definition of "hashish" and "marijuana concentrate" to be consistent throughout the Hawaii Revised Statutes. SB 2402 is necessary due to the fact that there is no clear definition of "hashish" in the Hawaii Revised Statutes. Law enforcement and the courts have had to fall back on the Federal definition of "hashish" for laboratory analysis purposes and prior case notes (Stale vs. Choy) that set forth the difference between "marijuana" and "marijuana concentrate" in the courts. SB 2402 if passed will clearly define the difference between the terms "marijuana," "marijuana concentrate," and "hashish." Thank you for the opportunity to testify on this matter.

  • Religious Use of Drugs
    Religious Use of Drugs Jay Leiderman Leiderman Devine LLP 5700 Ralston St #211 Ventura CA 93003 805 654 0200 www.leidermandevine.com [email protected] NORML PRESENTATION, Aspen, CO, 5 June 2011 IN THE BEGINNING . • And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, and the herb yielding seed... -Genesis 1:11 I. FEDERAL LAW • “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof . .” • It is the “free exercise clause” that is implicated by laws of general applicability that prohibit the religious use of drugs. I. FEDERAL LAW • The federal statute on religious use of drugs is the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (‘RFRA’). (42 U.S.C. § 2000bb et seq.) • RFRA provides that government, “shall not substantially burden a person’s exercise of religion even if the burden results from a rule of general applicability,” unless it passes the strict scrutiny test. I. FEDERAL LAW • The “RFRA is unconstitutional and does not trump California statutes prohibiting the sale or possession of marijuana for sale. ‘When the exercise of religion has been burdened in an incidental way by a law of general application, it does not follow that the persons affected have been burdened any more than other citizens, let alone burdened because of their religious beliefs.’ (City of Boerene v. Flores, (1997), 521 U.S. at p. 535 [138 L.Ed.2d at p. 648].)” I. FEDERAL LAW • The test applied to Federal Statutes and Federal Territories is the RFRA Test • The States revert to Employment Division v. Smith (1990) 494 U.S.
