51% of Americans now live in States with access to Medical Marijuana!
In this political season, 51% seems like a majority, but I'm not sure how the delegates or electoral college actually come into play.
Pennsylvania just pasted a restrictive Legalized Medical Marijuana this week, becoming the 24th state with a comprehensive medical marijuana law. Patients will not be allowed to smoke or grow their own. Licensed dispensaries will distribute pills, wax (for vaporizers), etc.
Under the new Pennsylvania law, certified patients with serious medical conditions will be able to obtain medical marijuana from state regulated dispensaries. This will include conditions like cancer, Crohn's Disease, post-traumatic stress, multiple sclerosis, and severe chronic pain. To qualify patients will need to first be certified by a physician and register with the state to receive an identification card from the Department of Health. The state will set up a system of licensed growers and dispensaries throughout the state to serve these certified patients. The actual implementation of the law is expected to take place in 18 to 24 months.
While this is an important milestone, the roll out is fairly restrictive and tightly controlled. However, the law includes funding to study use for different conditions, and that's a good thing.
Look for Cannabis Insurance Solutions to expand to PA to support the growers and dispensaries, once again "Protecting the Dream."
