Kentucky Legal Medical Marijuana
Kentucky Legalizing Medical Marijuana soon?
Kentucky Legal Medical Marijuana is not far away. With alcohol still having legal restrictions in part of the state, legalizing marijuana seems like a big leap. Some counties are dry to this day – meaning no alcohol sales in the county. Some counties are dry on Sunday’s only. As Kentucky’s youth are turning into voters, big changes are being made. Gatewood Galbraith worked on getting marijuana legal for decades in Kentucky, to no avail, but now his work will finally pay off. He lost his fourth bid for Kentucky Governor back in 2012 and died soon after. But there are thousands of people who are still pushing the cause.
