SEN.  PERRY CLARK OF LOUISVILLE TO PROPOSE 'GATEWOOD GALBRAITH MEMORIAL MEDICAL MARIJUANA ACT'

FRANKFORT, KY.  - Sen.  Perry Clark says he plans to try again in 2013 to pass a bill to legalize marijuana for medical purposes.

Clark, a Louisville Democrat, has scheduled a news conference for 2 p.m.  Thursday in Frankfort at the Capitol Annex to unveil legislation that would make marijuana a schedule II drug, legal for doctors to prescribe.

"So far 19 states and the District of Columbia have done this because studies have shown it's effective in treating so many diseases and conditions," Clark said in an interview.
