Florida Senator President Don Gaetz announced last week he would support legislation introduced in the senate to decriminalize the use of cannabidiol (CBD), a non-euphoric ingredient found in some marijuana plants, for the purpose of helping children with medical conditions that cause seizures. A group of republican senators introduced the bill Feb. 12 as companion legislation to the house bill previously introduced by Senator Gaetz’s son, Representative Matt Gaetz. “I am proud of my son for his political courage in fighting for these families as they fight for their children’s’ lives.”
