Will Colorado Let Medical Cannabis Patients Consume At Their Workplace?
Two new proposals for the Highest State could also allow medical cannabis users to consume at their place of employment. Those operating heavy machinery would be exempt; however, this consideration for cannabis users is some of the most progressive legislation the United States has seen yet.
