Patients and Families Hold Passionate Rally at Gov. Cuomo’s Office to Demand He Sign Medical Marijuana Emergency Access Bill

Cuomo Must Sign Bill By November 11th to Help End the Suffering of Patients

New York City – Today, patients, families, and advocates rallied outside Governor Cuomo’s Manhattan office to urge the Governor to sign a bill that would expedite access to medical marijuana for critically ill patients. In June, with overwhelming bipartisan support, both houses of the legislature passed A.7060 (Gottfried) / S.5086 (Griffo), directing the state to establish a program to help critically ill patients obtain emergency access to medical marijuana as soon as possible. The bill was delivered to Governor on October 30th.
