Kansas does not legalize medical marijuana or expand Medicaid due to GOP-controlled Senate blocking debates before adjournment.
Kansas will not legalize medical marijuana or expand its Medicaid program in the coming year, as Republican State Senators blocked efforts to debate the subjects before the GOP-controlled Legislature adjourns for the year. Both proposals have faced strong opposition, with backers arguing that they have popular support and have been thwarted for over a decade. All but 12 states have legalized medical marijuana, and all but 10 have expanded Medicaid in line with the Affordable Care Act.
