Sheriff’s Group Opposes Medical Marijuana in Missouri

A group called New Approach Missouri is fighting to allow medical marijuana in Missouri. However the Missouri Sheriffs Association is making it known that they stand on the opposite side of the debate. More from KY3:

New Approach Missouri wants to create a regulated medical marijuana program in which doctors can decide what’s best for their patients. The state’s sheriffs believe it would just cause more problems, however.

A medical marijuana dispensary just opened up on the other side of Missouri’s border, in Illinois. New Approach Missouri would like to see something similar here, to provide medical marijuana to patients with a variety of conditions.

“It runs everything from epilepsy to cancer to chronic debilitating issues where no other therapeutic has been effective,” said Lee Winters, board president of New Approach Missouri.
