Allow patients with a medical cannabis prescription to grow for personal use

Closed 124 signatures

What the petition asks

Allow patients with valid medical cannabis prescriptions to legally grow up to 6 plants for personal medical use. Require secure cultivation, LED lighting for safety, and registration with clinics to ensure safe, affordable, and regulated access to medicine.
Patients with valid medical cannabis prescriptions often face high costs and difficulty accessing the correct strains. We believe allowing them to grow up to six plants at home would make treatment more affordable, provide consistent access, and offer therapeutic benefits from cultivation, while ensuring safety through secure growing conditions and LED lighting requirements.
