Johnson

Raise
Legalization
Issue
in
Mexico
Meeting
6/8/01
The latest Narco News Bulletin reports
that New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson intends to raise the issue of legalization
in meetings with US and Mexican border governors this weekend, perhaps
with Mexico President Vicente Fox. Fox expressed support for globally
enacted legalization in comments made to reporters last March. Last
April, Gov. Patricio Martinez of the border state of Chihuahua added his
support to the debate.
