Medical Marijuana Proposal on Table
January 29, 2007
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Minnesota Senators Monday introduced a measure to allow the chronically ill and dying to use marijuana without breaking state law.
The proposal is not a new one. In each of the last two years, Senate committees have approved similar measures but it never moved on to full Senate approval.
About a dozen states already allow the critically ill to use marijuana but such laws have run into legal problems because marijuana is still a federally forbidden substance.
