Beyond Charlotte’s Web
February 5th, 2015 by Mike VasilindaState health officials, growers, and parents are expected to wrap up a rule making session that will lay out how the state will make Charlotte’s Web, a low THC marijuana available to patients. A majority of voters said yes to a full blown medical marijuana in November, but the measure fell short of being in the constitution. Now House Democratic Leader Mark Pafford thinks lawmakers will act sooner than later.
“I think that at 58% the people spoke. And I think, they are clearly okay with moving beyond Charlotte’s Web. What that looks like, I don’t know” says Pafford
Legislation to allow medical marijuana for more patients has been filed by a Republican Senator. Lawmakers are also facing another ballot vote in 2016 in which may believe if they don’t act first, voters will.
