Calif. patients still fighting for MED access

Last month, Senator Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) announced Senate Bill 1186, stating that it will “restore access to medical cannabis across the state.” 

If you’re not in the weeds of California cannabis politics (so to speak), you might be thinking, “Wait, whaa? I thought the Golden State pioneered medical cannabis decades ago?” 

Yeah, we did. California was the first state to legalize medical marijuana way back in 1996. Twenty years later, we passed the Adult Use of Marijuana Act (also known as Proposition 64), legalizing the recreational use of cannabis by adults.
