GETTING MARIJUANA TO PATIENTS
The state Senate voted Thursday to create a task force to recommend a "safe
and affordable" system for distributing medical marijuana to patients.
The measure, to establish a Medical Marijuana Distribution Task Force,
passed on a minimum 21-13 vote and now goes to the Assembly. The bill is an
attempt to help implement Proposition 215, a medical marijuana initiative
passed by voters in 1996.
The legislation is SB 1887 by Sen. John Vasconcellos, D-Santa Clara.
