MEDICAL MARUJUANA FOR MINNESOTANS?

(Saint Paul) Senate lawmakers this morning (Tuesday) debate whether to 
legalize the use of marijuana for medical purposes when recommended 
by a physician. 

A poll commissioned by the ``Drug Policy Reform Group'' says 
65 percent of Minnesotans want patients with debilitating illnesses to be 
permitted to use marijuana to relieve symptoms.
