The Daily Star reports that seriously ill patients are pushing for medical Marijuana in New York. They have put together an Assembly bill that "legalizes the possession, manufacture, use, delivery, transport or administration of marijuana by a patient or designated caregiver for a certified medical use". That sounds air tight, here's a snip from the article:

Two area men with serious, chronic medical conditions will join an assemblyman in Albany today to urge passage of a Senate bill allowing the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes.

``We're hopeful,'' said Bruce Dunn, of Morris, from a hotel in Albany on Monday night.

He and Richard Williams, of Richmondville, will join other patients and Assembly Health Committee Chair Richard N. Gottfried, D-Manhattan, who will announce a television advertising campaign seeking Senate approval of a bill before the lawmakers adjourn June 23. Later, patients will lobby their senators, according to a media advisory from Gottfried and the Marijuana Police Project in Washington, D.C.

There are seriously ill people all over the USA and the world who need cannabis to ease their pain, the only option is to legalize small amounts for adults.
