Mississippi passes medical marijuana bill, heads to governor

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Mississippi passed a medical marijuana bill in the House and Senate on Wednesday that will now go to the governor's desk for final approval.

The two chambers passed the final version of Senate Bill 2095, which will allow people to use marijuana for medical reasons.

The bill now heads to Gov. Tate Reeves (R), who has not said if he would veto the bill or sign it. He has had objections to legalizing marijuana in the past.

The lawmakers do have the votes to override a veto if Reeves rejects the bill.

1. Great news!

I was beginning to wonder if they were ever going to get around to doing the people's will. We passed the medical marijuana amendment with 65-70% of the vote, and the state supreme court threw it out on a technicality. A lot of pressure had to be put on legislators to give us what we want, and it finally paid off!
