State May Miss Deadline To Issue Medical Marijuana Rules

[Truth Seeker]

State officials are concerned about marijuana becoming widely available for recreational use, especially by teenagers, but medical-marijuana supporters say any delay is unjustified and would cause patients to suffer needlessly.
