Medical Marijuana History in Georgia

House Bill No. 1, dubbed as the Haleigh’s Hope Act, was signed into law on April 16, 2015, by Gov. Nathan Deal The law, which took effect immediately, legalized medical marijuana use in Georgia. It allows people who suffer from cancer, seizure disorders, sickle cell disease, and other illnesses to possess up to twenty ounces of cannabis oil if certified by a physician. The state estimates hundreds of thousands of residents could be eligible for the drug.

The law, administered by the Department of Public Health, requires patients and their caregivers to register with the Low THC Oil Patient Registry to gain legal access to medical marijuana.

Despite the law’s approval, patients and their families have to hurdle the issue of how to obtain the oil. It is illegal to cultivate and manufacture marijuana in Georgia, which means families have to travel to other states that have legalized the drug to get their supplies.
