Rep. Danny Bentley HCR 34 actually delays marijuana legalization, urging instead the expedited research and appropriate approval of marijuana derivatives for medical use. Bill sponsor Dr. Bentley, a PhD, registered pharmacist and university faculty member explains that several marijuana derivatives are currently approved and available by prescription , with others likely to be legalized soon. He warns the legislature about circumventing the FDA to legalize a smoked plant because it has not been adequately studied.
