HARRISBURG – Rep. Jack Rader (R-Monroe) issued the following statement after the House voted overwhelmingly to pass Senate Bill 3, which would legalize medical marijuana in Pennsylvania. The bill would create an experimental regulatory board which would oversee the dispensing of a medicinal strain of cannabis.
“By passing this bill, we can provide relief to hundreds of Pennsylvanians who are suffering from seizures and chronic illnesses. I think this is a positive first step that will allow many people to get the help they need without legalizing marijuana outright.”
