MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WAFF) - Alabama’s Medical Marijuana Commission says they will be ready to introduce a bill legalizing marijuana in the next legislative session. The commission met Thursday... the deadline for them to file a bill is December 1st.

State Senator Tim Melson says he’s asking commission members to study the bill and recommend changes before then.

The bill would create a Medical Cannabis Commission to manage issuing medical cannabis cards to patients.
