Michigan Patients Deserve Access to All Forms of Marijuana Medicine

Jul 18, 2013

Court of Appeals, edibles, Michigan, ointments, resin, tinctures


Many of Michigan’s medical marijuana patients have conditions that limit their ability to smoke marijuana. Often, doctors prefer that patients avoid smoking entirely. However, a recent decision by the Michigan Court of AppealsMI CoA leaves patients who use medical marijuana edible products, tinctures, and ointments at risk of being arrested!

Marijuana patients who are too ill to smoke or prefer a different option should not have to live in fear of arrest. Michigan’s law should accommodate this important option – a lifeline for patients in the state. If you are a Michigan resident, please take a moment to tell your state senator and representative that Michigan’s laws need to protect patients who prefer to consume marijuana in edible form.

Please pass this message on to friends, family, and other supporters in Michigan and help spread the word!
