Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act
Mississippi Marijuanas Has Been Legalized
Mississippi has made legal the use of marijuanas for medical patients who meet the 22 debilitating medical conditions. In February 2022, The Mississippi State Legislature passed the Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act which established the first medical marijuanas program in Mississippi.
The new bill reflects several key features of Initiative 65, which was approved by more than 74% of Mississippi voters last November, including broad access for patients, decision rights for certifying healthcare providers, a free market, and sustainable revenue models and reasonable regulations.
