In a twist of events, Nebraska’s recently approved medical marijuana initiatives are once again under legal scrutiny. Despite voters giving the green light in November, a new lawsuit filed on December 10 threatens to derail the state’s cannabis program before it even begins.

The lawsuit argues that state-level marijuana laws are unconstitutional, potentially impacting similar programs across the nation. This legal action follows a previous unsuccessful challenge dismissed by Judge Susan Strong in late November.

Nebraskans for Medical Marijuana remains committed to defending the new laws, with Campaign Manager Crista Eggers emphasizing states’ rights under the 10th Amendment. As the legal battle unfolds, the future of medical cannabis in Nebraska hangs in the balance, leaving patients and advocates in a state of uncertainty.
