Smoking Marijuana On the Horizon in Florida

March 2018 – TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — A hearing on Florida banning smokable forms of medical marijuana will be heard by a circuit court judge in May.

Leon County Judge Karen Gievers will hold a non-jury trial on May 16 to determine if the ban violates the 2016 state constitutional amendment that legalized medical marijuana.

People United for Medical Marijuana, which is the committee formed by Orlando attorney John Morgan, filed the lawsuit last July against the state’s Department of Health.

Morgan spearheaded the constitutional amendment, which was approved by 71 percent of voters.

The state legislature banned smoking in last year’s bill signed by Gov. Rick Scott, saying it isn’t healthy. The law does allow for vaping, edibles, oils, sprays or tinctures.

There are eight cases against the state, ranging from smoking to how the state awards licenses for medical marijuana treatment centers.  Read the full article here at The Cannabist

  1. I believe in our own rights as people.. We should have the choice to smoke weed or not. Isn’t that our right, as American People that were born and raised in America, to be able to decide for ourselves? I mean.. In all honesty, it DOES say in amendment 1, “prohibiting the free exercise of religion, or abridging the freedom of speach, the freedom of the press, the right to peaceably assemble”. We should have the right to choose.. And i chose a long time ago that weed is definitely okay. I mean.. You always hear lf people overdosing on all kinds of different drugs, but you don’t ever hear of someone dying from smoking weed!! God put weed on this earth for a reason! Just saying..
