Ohio senators take up bill to overhaul state’s medical cannabis program

Ohio senators are trying once more to overhaul the state’s medical cannabis system, whilst a bid to place recreational use on the ballot has gained steam, reports Marijuana Moment.

Ohio Senate’s General Government Committee heard proponent testimony raising concerns regarding the programme, such as the current system lacking competition, a lack of qualifying conditions and losing patients from the program.

One backer, Ted Bibart, stated: “This program is dying. The numbers tell us this. From last month’s numbers to this month’s numbers, we’ve lost 3 percent of the patient population. Over 4,000 patients have no longer participated in this program than did the month prior.”
