The red tape holding up an actual, legal, medical marijuana transaction in Illinois should not count against the people who need the drug, according to a bill in the General Assembly.

Medical marijuana is supposed to be a four-year pilot program, and this bill would make it four years from the time a dispensary can open. The argument is it's not only fair to the patients and dealers, it's fair to the state agencies evaluating the program.

"Because there will be only two years left," said the sponsor, State Rep. Lou Lang (D-Skokie), "they won't have all the necessary tools at their disposal to study this the way we would like."
