Senators Look At Next Steps For Medical Marijuana
December 6, 2016
About a month after Florida voters approved a constitutional amendment to broadly legalize medical marijuana, a Senate panel next week will start looking at how to carry out the requirement.
The Senate Health Policy Committee is scheduled to hold a workshop on December about implementation of what is known as Amendment 2. About 71 percent of voters approved the measure during the November 8 election.
Lawmakers in 2014 approved a law that allows types of non-euphoric cannabis for some patients. They also approved a measure this year that allows full-strength marijuana for terminally ill patients. But Amendment 2 would make marijuana available to patients with a far-broader range of conditions.
