Question of the day
Tuesday, Aug 28, 2018 - Posted by Rich Miller * At today’s bill signing to expand the use of our state’s medical marijuana “pilot program” we have Rep. Kelly Cassidy, the mother of marijuana legalization, and Gov. Bruce Rauner, who staunchly opposes legalizing recreational use…  No body language there. * The Question: Caption?
