On Monday, medical marijuana patients and advocates gathered in the room adjacent to the chamber where the Massachusetts State House of Representatives assemble to discuss how the Commonwealth ought to proceed with the licensing process for medicinal cannabis dispensaries.
As of today, September 22, Massachusetts and the medical marijuana program's overseer, the Department of Public Health, have yet to allow a single dispensary to open its doors here in the Bay State. It's been almost two years since residents voted to allow for cannabis treatment per ballot initiative back in 2012, it appears there's more waiting to be done for those most in need of the remedy.
