This has been all over the news for the past couple of days in Georgia. They are saying that it could be inacted immediately cuz Georgia actually approved MMJ back in the early 80's but never acted on anything (or something to that effect).

Bring it on down south!

That's awesome. The Governor of Louisiana stood behind medical legalization two days ago.

Look like it's starting to spread faster and faster.

Sweet! I used to grow outdoor in GA and almost got killed doing it when some people showed up to steal my plants. People shouldn't have to hide and live underground. Can't wait until my barbaric home state of Fla gets their heads out of their collective assholes and does the right thing. The Governor of Florida should start moving the machinery that will sooner than later let all the good people(and especially minorities) they've enslaved with prison terms out of jail... with full pardons.

They should all go to a fiery hell for their sins.

We have a CBD bill like Georgia in the Wisconsin legislature. There is much research being done on the funding on these bills, as they are questionable in nature.

Overall any step to get someone their medicine in Georgia is a positive one, but this is big business taking a small step into the legal arena.
