New Jersey Proposes Expansion to Medical Marijuana Law

New Jersey Senate Bill 3484 was recently introduced, which would give health care practitioners more discretion to determine which medical conditions could qualify patients for use of medical cannabis.

While New Jersey’s existing medical marijuana law offers a list of qualifying conditions, this bill would adjust language to include “any other medical condition or disease for which a healthcare practitioner determines that a patient would receive palliative or therapeutic benefit from the use of medical cannabis.”

If passed, this bill could allow more individuals to obtain medical marijuana throughout New Jersey.
