(firmenpresse) - [Omaha marijuana defense lawyer](http://www.nebraskainterstatedrugdefense.com/?utm_source=presscable&utm_medium=press+release&utm_term=omaha+marijuana+defense+lawyer&utm_content=legalized+marijuana+ballet+omaha+2018&utm_campaign=dan+stockmann), Daniel Stockmann, has commented on proposed legislation changes that may reach voters during the November 2018 voting session.

The measure is being pushed for by major Nebraska organizations and could make the State the 50th in the nation to permit cannabis for medicinal purposes.

As it stands now, nearly half of the country has enacted legislation that permits medical marijuana, with Pennsylvania coming into the fold this year. Five more states will vote on similar measures before 2016 concludes. Recently, Nebraska€™s LB 643, sponsored by State Senator Tommy Garrett, missed progressing by only three votes after several changed their minds at the last moment.

"People from all over the state -- with Huntington''s disease, glaucoma, cancer, seizure disorders, epilepsy -- could all really use medicinal marijuana," the senator said. "I''m unbelievably disappointed we didn''t get it passed this last session,"continued Senator Garrett.

Though Senator Garrett has said he plans to try again next year, if re-elected, three organizations have stepped up to the plate in an attempt to get the measure approved for the 2018 ballot. Nebraska Families 4 Medical Cannabis, Legal Marijuana Now, and Omaha National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) will be working in conjunction to gather some 120,000 signatures, starting in 2017. The groups would have liked to have had the signatures for the next session, though felt they would fall short with the July cutoff for signatures.

€œAs it stands now, even parents trying to calm their children€™s seizures are considered criminals in the state of Nebraska,€ Omaha marijuana defense lawyer Daniel Stockmann explained. The state doesn€™t treat people any differently if the cannabis is for medicinal use.€

€œIt doesn€™t matter if it€™s smoked, used as an oil, or delivered via a vaporizer,€ he added. He also pointed out that parents are put in an especially precarious position, because the penalties are steeper when minors are involved. The Omaha marijuana defense lawyer added, €œIn some states, this is a recognized medical treatment, and it is offered by physicians, but Nebraska can prosecute as if a parent has given their child a harmful and dangerous drug.€
