Panel debates medical marijuana law in South Carolina
A South Carolina legislative panel met for the first time to study medical marijuana needs and how to implement a bill enabling a specific oil use. Led by Sen. Tom Davis, the group aims to inform lawmakers, while SLED opposes growing hemp or marijuana in the state. Davis calls the current bill a baby step for epilepsy patients seeking oil with doctor approval.
