Arkansas Attorney General approves ballot proposal for medical marijuana law changes
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KARK/KAIT) – A group’s plan to put medical marijuana accessibility changes before Arkansas voters this November crossed a major milestone Tuesday.
Content partner KARK reported on Feb. 20, that Attorney General Tim Griffin approved the Arkansas Medical Cannabis Amendment of 2024.
If approved by voters, it would change the current medical marijuana laws (Amendment 98), increasing access for patients.
Proposed changes would include who is qualified to sign off on medical marijuana cards. That role is currently limited to doctors, but the proposal would add nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and pharmacists.
