Senator Kruse Talks Mascots and Marijuana

hudl.com
Roseburg's football field; the Indians logo has been a single feather for years.

It's been a big week for Oregon State Senator Jeff Kruse

He's squarely in the middle of two hot items in the legislative hopper: marijuana regulation and school mascots. 

Kruse supports further regulation of medical marijuana, and the state school board's move to ban Native American mascots certainly hits home for a guy who represents Roseburg, where the Roseburg Indians play. 

Kruse joins us to talk about accomplishments of the session... and what lies ahead in the final month or so.
