DRUG LAW BATTLE--Ed Orlett, of the Ohio Campaign for New Drug Policies, speaks with reporters outside of Gov. Bob Taft's office, at the Ohio Statehouse, in Columbus, Ohio, on Thursday, July 18, 2002. Mr. Orlett's group will most likely place a constitutional amendment on the Nov. ballot which would mandate treatment rather than incarceration for first-time drug offenders. The Taft adminstration and the group Ohioans Against Unsafe Drug Laws oppose the change in state law. (Jack Kustron/Photoj.com)
