Gatewood Galbraith Memorial Act

                      

The Kentucky lawmaker Senator Perry Clark  announced in July that he planned to introduce the Gatewood Galbraith Memorial Medical Marijuana Act, named after an attorney and marijuana advocate who died from pneumonia in January. The senator didn't doubt that it was “going to be very, very difficult” to pass the bill in such a conservative state. The bill if passed  would allow those suffering from multiple sclerosis(M.S.), HIV/AIDS, cancer, and other serious medical conditions to use marijuana with a doctor’s approval. These  doctors patients would be allowed to possess up to 5 ounces of marijuana and grow up to five marijuana plants.
