I'd like to start this thread to keep an ongoing discussion with updates about marijuana and its legality in the state. It is usually pretty hard for me to find recent, detailed stories or updates about marijuana and its potential medical use for Tennessee. Because of this I'd like for you all to take a part in recording or documenting where lawmakers are on this issue in our state. Thanks for participating!
 
IDK about the lawmakers but I have been told that Memorial Hospital in Chattanooga will prescribe a joint that you have to smoke while there and return the roach to be disposed of.
