SENATE PASSES MEDICAL MARIJUANA BILL

Under legislation passed by the Senate March 31, patients using medical marijuana would legally be allowed to purchase up to 6 ounces each month.

Passed 18-3, Senate Bill 17 decriminalizes the possession of marijuana for patients with certain illnesses.  The bill creates a system of identification for eligible patients and allows them to hold marijuana products.

The bill now heads to the House, where a date for a vote has yet to be determined.
