(GA) Senate committee votes to approve medical marijuana bill
ATLANTA —
Members of a Georgia Senate committee have to vote to approve a bill that would legalize medical marijuana for children with severe seizure disorders.
The sponsor of the bill says he's come up with a way that Georgia parents living in Colorado, where the cannabis oil is legal, can finally come back home.
Georgia parents would be able to get it and won't have to worry about getting arrested.
A small party was held at the state Capitol Wednesday to say goodbye to Janea Cox and her 4-year-old daughter, Haleigh, who are moving to Colorado Thursday where medical marijuana is already legal and helping kids like Haleigh who suffer from severe seizure disorders.
