Alabama medical marijuana bill moves out of Senate with little debate

Alabama medical marijuana bill moves out of Senate with little debate The Montgomery Advertiser 2/26/2021 Brian Lyman, Montgomery Advertiser © Jake Crandall/ Advertiser The Alabama Senate restarts the session at the State House in Montgomery, Ala., on Monday, May 4, 2020. The Alabama Senate on Wednesday passed a bill that would allow medical marijuana in the state after a debate more striking for its brevity than its controversy. The chamber approved the measure, sponsored by Sen. Tim Melson, R-Florence, on a 20 to 10 vote. The bill moves to the House, which has been skeptical of medical cannabis in the past. But Melson said after the vote that polling showed strong support for the bill, and that personal experiences of legislators could help its prospects.

Preview of the 2021 Alabama Legislature: COVID-19 having big impact

The COVID-19 outbreak hit the 2020 session of the Alabama Legislature like a meteorite. It forced the suspension of business for six weeks and all but wiped out an ambitious agenda. Both the fallout and the outbreak remain as legislators prepare for the start of the 2021 session on Tuesday. Officials are restricting public access to the State House. Alabama House members will sit in the House chamber, the gallery and adjoining rooms and vote electronically. And after two weeks, the Legislature will take a week off to make sure the protocols are working. “The changes that we have had to make to meetings, committee rooms, the public access because of all of those, it will not be business as normal,” said House Speaker Mac McCutcheon, R-Monrovia.
