Georgia medical marijuana bill approved in Senate committee
ATLANTA (FOX 5 Atlanta) - A Georgia Senate committee on Wednesday approved a limited version of a bill that allows in-state production and sale of medical marijuana.
The bill would allow those who can already legally possess low-potency marijuana oil to access the product.
Officials said the committee approved the bill on a 7-2 vote.
The bill closed a loophole created by Georgia’s 2015 medical marijuana law that allows patients to possess the drug but provided no way to obtain it.
