North Dakota's House has defeated a bipartisan bill that would legalize medicinal marijuana in the state.

The House voted 67 to 26 on Wednesday to kill the measure.

Freshman Democratic Rep. Pam Anderson of Fargo sponsored the bill that would allow pot or cannabis-related products for medical use.

People suffering chronic pain and parents of critically ill children pleaded with North Dakota lawmakers earlier this month to pass the legislation to legalize medicinal marijuana in the state.

Health officials and Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem opposed the measure. Stenehjem says the bill does not address numerous regulatory and public safety concerns.
