SB 209, legislation to protect qualified patients who consume cannabis under a physician’s written authorization, has been defeated in committee.
The measure, sponsored by Democrat Sen. Karen Tallian, sought to permit qualified patients — including patients with arthritis, migraine, PTSD, and seizures — to engage in cannabis therapy.
However, this battle is far from over and we still encourage you to enter your zip code below and continue to voice your support for medical marijuana access in the state of Indiana.
Twenty-three states and the District of Columbia have enacted statewide provisions allowing patients access to cannabis therapy. Indiana patients deserve these same protections. We will continue to keep you informed if/when lawmakers revisit this issue.
