Kentucky Senate budget bill sets limits on medical cannabis oversight spending
Fox News
The Kentucky Senate inserted language into the state's main budget bill that would set conditions to fund medical cannabis program oversight.
The Senate's version states that no funds for the Office of Medical Cannabis would become available without peer reviewed, published research showing "conclusive evidence as to the efficacy of medical cannabis for the persistent reduction of symptoms of diseases and conditions."
Republican Sen. Chris McDaniel said the provision reflected the view of senators who want to ensure "we have research coming out that’s appropriate to fund" the medical cannabis office.
