IA Medical Marijuana Bill Dies in Committee

Posted: Updated:

Medical marijuana will likely not become legal in Iowa.

That's according to the head of a state senate committee, who says a bill will not be heard by the full committee because it doesn't have enough support to pass.

The bill would have allowed patients with qualifying conditions, like cancer, to get a prescription for medical marijuana.

A house subcommittee also rejected a similar bill.
