NY Assembly Approves Medical Marijuana Bill

Yesterday, the New York Assembly overwhelmingly approved a bill to allow seriously ill patients with certain qualifying conditions to use medical marijuana with a 95-38 vote. A6357 will now go before the Senate.

Gov. Cuomo has expressed concern about the bill, and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg recently declared medical marijuana to be a "hoax", despite the professional opinions of over 600 New York doctors to the contrary.

If you are a New York resident, please contact Gov. Cuomo and urge him to support this compassionate legislation.
