In the final hours of the legislative session Saturday, the Iowa Senate sent a bill to the governor that would expand the state’s medical marijuana program.
The bill allows for more potent medical marijuana products at the state’s five dispensaries. It would remove the 3-percent cap on THC—the chemical that makes people feel high—and replace it with a per-person limit of 25 grams in 90 days.
One exception to the limit is a waiver available to terminally ill people with a life expectancy of less than one year.
