\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) announced that the state will begin accepting applications for medical cannabis business licenses<\/span><\/a>\u2014and letting doctors sign up to get certified for patient recommendations\u2014on Monday, six months ahead of schedule.<\/span>

\n
\u201cOr, if they prefer a patchwork of state policies\u2014possibly including those that allow for commercial supply and promotion\u2014they can do nothing and just watch the industry grow.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
