Legislation that would limit medical marijuana testing to two companies passed the West Virginia House and will be considered by the Senate.<\/p>\n

House Bill 4627, sponsored by Del. Brandon Steele (R), passed the chamber 67-33 and was communicated to the Senate.<\/p>\n

The bill<\/a> is designed to ensure the two companies that have been investing in medical marijuana testing at the request of the Department of Health and Human Resources will see a return on investment.<\/p>\n
