Arkansans may get to vote on an amendment that would ease regulations on medical marijuana.
Why it matters: The Arkansas Medical Marijuana Amendment of 2024 would mostly relax regulations, like allowing medical professionals other than doctors to sign off on medical marijuana cards.
- It would also allow patients ages 21 and up to grow and process marijuana plants at home and open up eligibility for any medical conditions that a health care practitioner considers debilitating instead of the existing qualifying conditions.
