According to a recent article in the Texas Tribune titled Medical Marijuana Advocates: Proposal Doesn't Go Far Enough says, that two lawmakers have filed bills that could allow to use medicinal oils that are found in marijuana and contain a therapeutic component for epilepsy patients. Those who are in support of the Texas Compassionate Use Act which its purpose is to ensure that seriously ill Californians have the right to obtain and use marijuana for medical purposes are calling it an “appeasement legislation” that will only benefit epilepsy patients in Texas but would do nothing for those with other diseases. There are many in support but also against it and having the bill expand can also be a loss of political support. Additionally some, critics don't like how long the implementation of the measure could take, with the first dispensaries scheduled to be licensed by 2018. I believe this is important because if the bill were to be implemented it could benefit many epilepsy patient, and with that being passed it could support another bill that could allow the use of medical marijuana for many medical purposes.
