Medical Mary J in Illinois

As you can see, as of 12/1/2009 something about rule 19(b) happened. There's a bunch of rewording to the bill, but I can't tell whether or not the bill passed completely yet.

Anyone know if it's on the way to the governor yet? Or is it still at the Senate/House level?

Also, does anyone know if PTSD is a "qualifier" for the medicinal card?

that link aint working

The bill still hasn't become a law. It has passed the IL Senate, but is still awaiting a vote by the IL House of Representatives.

The latest action as of 12/28 was to re-refer the bill to the Rules Committee which happens when the deadline for a vote expires. At this point it either dies or is given a new deadline.

Lou Lang, who authored a previous medical marijuana bill is a member of the committee so hopefully it gets a new deadline and we have a vote soon...

Sorry to report that PTSD is not currently listed as a condition treatable by medical marijuana in the bill. There's still hope, though. The bill isn't final yet so call your representative and let them know it should be covered. Link for contacting your rep: https://ssl.capwiz.com/mpp/callalert/index.tt?alertid=13443501
