Medical Cannabis Bill Comes Up One Vote Short in the Georgia Senate, Ending Hopes for MMJ in the State for Now

Last week, Georgia’s legislative body resolved to drop the most recent medical cannabis bill after it failed to come to a compromise on the proposed repairs. This leaves medical cannabis patients with the short end of the stick as they would be unable to purchase their cannabis-derived drugs legally. This same bill was introduced and approved in the state’s House of Representatives some weeks ago before it was passed on to the Senate for the final vote. However, the Senate voted 28 to 27 in favor of the nays, which was the end of the bill.
