Medical marijuana bill heads to full Pa. Senate for vote

HARRISBURG, Pa. — A bill that would legalize medical marijuana in Pennsylvania may come before the full Senate Wednesday, after the Senate Appropriations Committee voted to release it for a floor vote earlier this week.

The Appropriations Committee  determines what bills will cost and how they will be funded .

The Senate passed a similar version of The Medical Cannabis Act last year, but it failed in the House.  The updated bill’s future in the House remains uncertain.

Governor Tom Wolf says he will sign the bill if it reaches his desk.
