On This Date in Minnesota History: May 16

May 16, 2014 – A bill legalizing medical marijuana was passed by the Senate and House with “significant bipartisan support.”

The law “authorizes access to the drug for about 5,000 Minnesotans with conditions including cancer, epilepsy, HIV/AIDS and a handful of others. With a health care provider’s permission, those patients will enroll in a patient registry that will allow the state Department of Health to monitor their progress.”

“The drug will be available only in pill or oil forms, with smoking not allowed and access to the drug in its original plant form forbidden.”
