SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — The push to legalize medical marijuana in Illinois has taken a big step forward.
The Illinois Senate voted 30-28 in favor of a plan to let sick people use pot for relief from diseases like cancer, AIDS and multiple sclerosis.
The bill now goes to the Illinois House, where a committee passed a medical marijuana measure earlier this year.
Bruce Mirken, spokesman for the Marijuana Policy Project, says that if the bill is eventually signed into law, Illinois would join 13 other states that have such measures in place.
MaddMaxx will just need to find a ride to Cal City once this becomes law.

Damn, that's who I was going to ask first.

BWG, I quit drinking a long time ago, but I'll buy you a bottle for the ride.
