Legalization of cannabis in Minnesota

By a tribal vote of 994-150, the White Earth Nation voted to legalize medical cannabis. Now, patients seeking relief from its many healing properties will be able to enjoy the benefits of its use without fear of punishment, according to Red Lakes Nation News. As the news source reports, six years after the state of Minnesota legalized medical marijuana in 2014, "the measure allows the Tribal Council to set its own rules and regulations regarding medical cannabis on the reservation, which would not be subject to Minnesota's medical marijuana laws, which are among the most restrictive in the nation." Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) News states that the state's drug treatment program has served relatively few patients for more than four years, and many of them consider it too expensive. "It is unclear what form the program will take going forward, as some members of the legislature advocate for Minnesota to join the ranks of other states that allow recreational marijuana sales." The state of Minnesota and dozens of other states allow both recreational and medicinal cannabis use. Still, as many as 11 U.S. states allow both types of marijuana in their areas, demonstrating that this practice not only benefits patients but also contributes to the economy. In 2021, a public announcement was made that the state would begin allowing patients access to edible cannabis products and smokable cannabis flowers. Beginning in March 2022, registered patients over the age of 21 can access smokable medical cannabis. Beginning August 1, 2022, registered patients will be able to begin purchasing gummies and chewables. However, patients must have a consultation with a dispensary pharmacist before being able to purchase this medicine. Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) News afirma que el programa estatal de tratamiento de la drogadicción ha atendido a relativamente pocos pacientes durante más de cuatro años, y muchos de ellos lo consideran demasiado caro. "No está claro qué forma adoptará el programa en el futuro, ya que algunos miembros de la legislatura abogan por que Minnesota se una a las filas de otros estados que permiten la venta recreativa de marihuana". El estado de Minnesota y docenas de otros estados contemplan simultáneamente el uso recreativo y medicinal del cannabis. Aun así, hasta 11 estados de EE.UU. permiten ambos tipos de marihuana en sus zonas, lo que demuestra que esta práctica no sólo beneficia a los pacientes, sino que también contribuye a la economía. En 2021 se hizo un anuncio público de que el estado comenzaría a permitir a los pacientes el acceso a productos comestibles de cannabis y flores de cannabis para fumar. Desde marzo de 2022, los pacientes registrados mayores de 21 años pueden acceder a cannabis medicinal fumable. A partir del 1 de agosto de 2022, los pacientes registrados podrán empezar a comprar gominolas y masticables. Sin embargo, los pacientes deben haber realizado una consulta con un farmacéutico dispensario antes de poder comprar este medicamento.

Conditions and costs

To qualify for Minnesota’s medical cannabis program, the following conditions had to be met: ALS/Lou Gehrig’s Disease Autism Spectrum Disorder (per DSM-5) Alzheimer’s Disease Cancer accompanied by severe or chronic pain, nausea, vomiting, or cachexia resulting from an underlying illness or treatment Chronic Pain Chronic Motor or Vocal Tic Disorder Glaucoma Intractable Pain HIV/AIDS Tourette’s Syndrome Seizures/Epilepsy Muscle Spasms Sickle Cell Anemia Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Severe and Persistent Muscle Spasms Obstructive Sleep Apnea Crohn’s Disease and Other Inflammatory Bowel Diseases Less than one year of life expectancy, terminal illness Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) A Minnesota state-issued ID card or driver’s license is required along with a qualifying condition. Applying for Minnesota Medical Cannabis costs $200. If a patient is enrolled in MinnesotaCare, receives SSI, SSD, or is eligible for SSI money, the fee may be reduced to $50. Caregivers: Patients can add caregivers to their Registry accounts, and caregivers will receive invitations to create their own accounts. As part of the application process, the caregiver will need to provide the following information: their name, address, date of birth, and phone number, as well as an official government ID: a state ID card, driver's license, or passport, accompanied by a criminal background check conducted by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Caregiver applications cost $15, and they must be 21 or older. Caregiver background checks are valid for two years. Adding a caregiver to your medical cannabis certification does not require approval from your healthcare provider. A medical cannabis caregiver may serve up to six patients at a time.

Benefits of the Minnesota Medical Marijuana Card

Having a medical marijuana card has numerous benefits, but not everyone is aware of them. Here are some reasons why Minnesota residents should make an effort to obtain one: Complete Legal Protection: Anyone with a medical marijuana card has several legal protections. Although medical marijuana is a legal substance in Minnesota, its use is governed by several strict regulations. The availability of different types of medical cannabis products requires a marijuana card for patients suffering from health conditions. Offers and Discounts: There's no denying that cannabis-infused products are quite expensive, so you can end up burning a hole in your wallet if you buy them. Discounts and attractive offers are more accessible to patients who hold medical marijuana cards, allowing them to obtain better products at more affordable prices, saving them from high costs. However, these discounts are only available at licensed dispensaries. Age is not an obstacle. With the legalization of recreational marijuana use, the legal age limit for consumption has been lowered to 21. However, medical marijuana is available to individuals 18 and older with a MMJ card; therefore, the age restriction does not apply. As an added benefit of being an MMJ patient under 18, a caregiver can apply for an MMJ card on the patient's behalf.
