Indiana Statehouse Hears Mixed Results Of Summer Study Session On Medical Marijuana

Worrying that it could become more available to children

 A summer study session on the legalization of medical marijuana in Indiana has concluded.

Despite the legalization of CBD oil use earlier this year, many at the statehouse still oppose medical marijuana, worrying that it could become more available to children. 

Both supporters and those against it spoke yesterday as a result of the summer session. 

Those in favor of legalization point to the increase it would cause for state tax dollars.
