Prop 19 and more
While I like the savings in law enforcement, court resources, and the lessening of people's lives being ruined by the draconian war on drugs laws, my main concern is getting the industrial hemp, like Canada, legal here in California.
Canadian hemp farming history so far:

The State legislature has approved hemp growth a few times but the Governor veto pen killed it a few times.
Maybe if Prop 19 passes and Jerry Brown wins it will open a door.

1. Prop. 19 says "marijuana"
so it's not specific as to what type of cannibus and if so, hemp would be included.

Just FYI, Jerry Brown OPPOSES Prop. 19.
