Legalization of recreational marijuana is a bad idea for Ohio. Vote NO on Issue 2.

A recent study finds marijuana use can lead to widespread health issues, including high rates of depression, poor sleep quality, addiction, and for pregnant women it can cause harm to their babies in the womb. The Daily Mail recently examined several medical studies into marijuana use. In Denmark, researchers found someone with cannabis use disorder was 4 times more likely to be diagnosed as bi-polar. Elsewhere, there have been many anecdotal reports of high-potency marijuana vapes causing psychotic breaks and suicidal thoughts. Marijuana is legal for recreational use in 21 US states and Washington DC. Vice President of Community Engagement and Global Goodwill at Evoke Wellness Drug and Alcohol Rehab, Jim Wahlberg, joins to share what he is seeing on the front lines regarding marijuana use and what sorts of health and mental problems he is seeing. Wahlberg discusses what it signals for marijuana use in the US that it is legal for recreational use in 21 states and for medicinal use in 40 states and whether there is any way to reverse some of these laws. He explains whether there are any circumstances where marijuana can be good. -EWTN NEWS-
