Arkansas proposes a casino license amendment for Pope County and extends the medical marijuana program amendment's signature deadline.

A proposed constitutional amendment in Arkansas to grant a casino license in Pope County has qualified for the November ballot, while a proposed amendment to expand the state's medical marijuana program is given a 30-day "cure period" to collect more valid signatures by August 30 to be included in the November ballot. The medical marijuana amendment aims to add new medical professionals who can certify patients, eliminate the $50 charge for patient cards, extend the life of patient cards from one year to three years, and remove restrictions on some dispensary sales and patient cultivation.
