HARRISBURG, Pa. - April 29, 2009 - Democratic Rep. Mark Cohen says people in pain should not be
forced to choose between moving out of state for treatment or
buying drugs from criminals.
The bill has only six co-sponsors, but Cohen says he's
optimistic about its prospects because polls show high levels of
public support and lawmakers have to respond to their constituents.
Cohen isn't sure if medical marijuana legislation has previously
been introduced in the General Assembly.
