Snodgrass is the current Minority Caucus Sergeant At Arms. She was first elected to Assembly 2020.

When she ran in 2018, she made sure to include her pro-cannabis stance on my website. It was important for her to let constituents know that from pain management, to criminal justice, to economic recovery, legalizing just makes sense.

In 2022 she was quoted often in many main stream media sources after the 2022 Referendums passed with high support. “I think it shows what we’ve known statewide that a majority of Wisconsinites want to see marijuana legalized,” said Democratic State Rep. Lee Snodgrass. Adding: Snodgrass says Republicans should consider the polling results when a legalization bill is on the table.

“Right now, we are not preventing Wisconsinites from using cannabis. They are just going to other states to do so; we are surrounded by states where it’s legalized, and this is a revenue issue,” said Snodgrass.

She has consistently sponsored cannabis reform bills and has been a leader on legislation to allow adult use recreational cannabis and finally end marijuana prohibition in Wisconsin.

Should the industrial hemp industry in Wisconsin come under attack, she will be there to to defend it.
