Patients, family members and activists stood with legislators today to announce introduction of Assembly bill A. 7060, directing the state to establish a program to help critically ill patients obtain emergency access to medical marijuana as soon as possible. Here are some photos from the event, and for more information here is the press release. I also sat down with Time Warner Cable News’ Capital Tonight to discuss the bill.
