Gov. Rick Scott signed a bill last month that outlines how patients can qualify and receive medical marijuana. The bill also allows 10 new treatment centers to open up by Oct. 3 in addition to the seven that are currently operating. However, smoking is still banned, and Amendment 2 supporters like Morgan are threatening to sue, claiming the language in the bill doesn’t exclude smoking. Morgan couldn’t be reached for comment, but will hold a press conference Thursday at 9:30 a.m.
