LDS Church explains stances on 2 medical marijuana bills
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has clarified its differing opinions on medical marijuana legislation.
The LDS Church specified its concerns in a statement last week, saying the measures take very different approaches to access, distribution and control of the hallucinogenic compound THC.
Saratoga Springs Republican Sen. Mark Madsen sponsored a bill that allows patients with a doctor's recommendation to access products containing THC. He said in early February that the church owed an explanation to the people for its differing views.
A bill sponsored by Cedar City Republican Sen. Evan Vickers and Orem Republican Rep. Brad Daw legalizes products containing marijuana plant extracts containing almost no THC.
The church's statement acknowledges that some patients may find relief in certain compounds of marijuana.
Senators could vote on both measures next week.
