August 2021 Group Watch: AL Medical Cannabis Commission Holds First Meeting
Late last week, Alabama’s newly formed Medical Cannabis Commission held its inaugural meeting in Montgomery. Earlier this year, Governor Ivey signed the bill that made the use of cannabis to address specific health concerns legal, and the commission is beginning its work to come up with the rules and procedures needed to regulate the growth of marijuana and then the manufacturing of it into medical cannabis products. Alabama joins 35 other states that allow medical cannabis.
