NJ marijuana legalization: A 'very happy' day for medical cannabis patients
More than a dozen families have reached out to Mike Honig in recent weeks, as Jake’s Act stalled because it was tethered to the controversial bill legalizing recreational weed. That changed Wednesday, when Senate President Steve Sweeney announced the legislature was kicking the recreational issue to a referendum in 2020 and fast-tracking Jake’s Act for a statehouse vote that is expected to be hassle-free.
“We’re very happy,” Mike Honig said late Wednesday. “It’s nice to see everybody come together and move forward for the sake of patients.”
