The Weed Has Been Freed with a Picture ID from the Michigan Marijuana Regulatory Agency.

by the Weed Warrior 

After 12 years of bureaucratic neglect and indifference, The Michigan Medical Marijuana card has become an official government issued valid ID with a picture on it. Personal Identifiable Information from your driver’s license like your drivers license number will no longer be available to 3rd party websites at provisioning centers. This will protect patients from identity theft by scrupulous business owners and identity theft.


We must give proper kudos to State Representative Cynthia A. Johnson(D5), Marijuana Regulatory Agency Director Andrew Brisbo and, the staff who brought the agency into compliance with the Law. We also want to give thanks to Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson for supporting the law of the land.

To get your new ID card and picture you must go to the MRA website at www.michigan.gov/mra and select MMMP Patients and Caregivers from the menu.

  1. Scroll down the page and look for the red button saying registration cards with picture on it. 
  2. Select that button and information is there to get a new card online or, download and fill out the paper form and mail it in.  

If you are a current participant of the MMJ program, a new card will be sent to you free of charge.  Otherwise, when it is time to renew your card, your new card will have your picture it.

With the new card you will be able to get medicine from provisioning centers, vote in elections, cash checks, and present this to anyone asking for a valid government ID.  As of this writing Michigan will recognize patient cards from 38 states and counting. To amend the US constitution, you need a minimum of 38 states out of 50 to ratify a change allowing the agriculture industry to use of Cannabis as a medicine, biofuels to fight climate change, and manufacturing for raw goods. Finally, amending the constitution will help facilitate the immediate expungement of all federal pot prisoners in the bureau of Federal Bureau of Prisons, besides an executive order from President Joe Biden.

While recreational marijuana is legal in many states, a medical card will give you added legal protection from HIPPA and internationally. On a federal and international level, there are existing treaties between the United States and other countries that have been in place for over 80+ years.  These treaties need to be set aside to finally end the stigma against cannabis. To do that we must vote in every election to make sure that the people representing you in Washington DC are supporting cannabis reform.  If they get elected and stray, you must make them pay at the ballot box.   If you have an elected official that IS supporting cannabis, then you must elect and re-elect them to office.

With adherence to perseverance, any goal can be achieved, any task can be accomplished.
