KASICH SIGNS BILL LEGALIZING MEDICAL MARIJUANA

COLUMBUS ( AP ) - Ohio became the latest state in the nation to legalize medical marijuana after Republican Gov.  John Kasich signed legislation Wednesday.

The law allows people to use the drug in vapor form for certain chronic health conditions, while barring patients from smoking marijuana or growing it at home.

Kasich's signature makes Ohio the 25th state to legalize a comprehensive medical marijuana program, according to a count by the National Conference of State Legislatures.
