Montel Williams Lobbies Albany To Legalize Med Marijuana

Montel Williams, the former talk show host who now suffers from multiple sclerosis, is making the rounds here at the State Capitol today in hopes of encouraging the legalization of medical marijuana in New York.

Williams, who uses marijuana to ease the effects of his condition, noted 14 states and the District of Columbia have passed MM laws, and many other state legislatures are now considering it.

It's questionable whether the New York measure will make it through, and officials including Mayor Bloomberg have issued strenuous objections to its passage.

I had a chance to chat briefly with Williams, who says he's not giving up hope.
