Governor Wolf: Cannabis Grow For Senior Patients

"Seniors with marijuana medical cards should be able to grow 1-2 marijuana plants in order for them to afford their medication."

Why is this important?

Because Medicare and private insurance does not cover the cost of medical marijuana products, the cost can be devastating for seniors 65 years and older on a fixed income. We need to help our seniors in this situation and giving legal patients the right to partially self supply would be a good start. There will still be plenty of money to be made for the state from the dispensaries.
