Policy Analysis: The Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Act

I chose the controversial Pennsylvania Senate bill No 1182 "Medical Cannabis Charity Project", which proposes to legalize the medical use of cannabis in Pennsylvania. With this bill, Pennsylvania doctors will be able to offer medicinal cannabis prescriptions to patients (Memorandum, 2014). This bill was introduced by Folmer, Leach, Teplitz, Ferro, Fontana, Farnese and Wiley on 15th January 2014 (Senator 1182, 2014).

San Francisco voters adopted the proposal of P narcotics in 1991 before the San Francisco marijua policy passed the state-wide sympathy bill. This proposal asks whether San Francisco recommends California State and California State Medical Association to resume "anesthesia" treatment - a list of official medicines in California state state to discuss the medical benefits of marijuana Quoting a scientific institution, 56 voters approved a proposal of about 80 votes.

California was the first state to establish a medical marijuana program that was enacted in Proposition 215 and Senate Item 420 in 2003 in 1996. Proposal 215, also known as "Sympathy Usage", allows people to obtain and use marijuana to treat any disorder when people are advised by a doctor. The California Supreme Court ruled that there is no special restriction on what a patient can have in his or her personal home if marijuana is strictly for patient's own use. Medical Cannabis ID is issued through the Medical Marijuana Program (MMP) of the California Public Health Administration. The program started in three counties in May 2005 and expanded to the state in August of the same year. As of December 2009, a total of 37,236 cards have been issued in 55 counties throughout the country.

By so doing, California became the first state in the US to legalize marijuana for medical use. "Compassionate nursing care law" allows patients and qualified caregivers to develop and own marijuana for personal use, but that does not provide a regulatory structure48. In addition to legalizing medical cannabis, California state voters are also promoting keeping the state's narcotics policy away from criminal convictions and severe penalties. In 2000, voters approved drug abuse and crime 46 Ingraham, Christopher. Washington State Post, November 18, 2016, "Attorney General chose:" Good people do not smoke marijuana.
