Medical marijuana now legal in PA

Pennsylvania has become the 24th state to legalize a comprehensive medical marijuana program.

Democratic Governor Tom Wolf signed the bill into law at 1 p.m. today.

It could take two years to write regulations and get retailers opened, but a provision allows parents to legally administer medical marijuana to their children in the meantime when the bill takes effect in a month.
