By Griffin Coop Verified| Arkansas Times Verified Gov. Sarah Sanders’ veto of a medical marijuana bill late Wednesday came as a shock to the bill’s lead sponsor, Republican Aaron Pilkington of Knoxville. “I feel like I was totally sucker punched,” Pilkington said this morning. “The whole time I was running it, I never heard there was any opposition from the governor’s office. I would have gladly worked with them to address any concerns.” House Bill 1889 passed each chamber by a razor-thin margin this month.
By Griffin Coop Verified| Arkansas Times Verified Gov. Sarah Sanders vetoed a bill Wednesday evening that would have allowed for drive-thru windows at medical marijuana dispensaries. Sanders said she was rejecting the bill because it would have “expanded access to usable marijuana.”House Bill 1889 squeaked through both legislative chambers this month by the narrowest of margins, passing the 100-member House with just 51 votes and the Senate with 19 votes, one more than the minimum. Republicans and Democrats supported the bill in each chamber.
