We can’t even begin to express our frustration that it is taking so long for the state to implement the law that passed in 2019 to provide access to patients. https://t.co/Mnu1yh2L0n
Disability services are facing serious cuts in Georgia’s. #gapol#DisabilityRights
We have started a petition that can be found here:

Georgia Lawmakers are Cutting the Following from the State Budget:
No New NOW/COMP Waiver Slots
Elimination of all Family Support Funding
Autism Funding Reduction
Supported Housing
Assistive Technology
And More . . . #gapol#DisabilityRights
Now it's time to get to work. Let's hope the commission members will be diligent to move quickly to get the delivery infrastructure in place, because hurting Georgians are waiting. But I wonder why no parent advocates were named to the commission?? #gapol
Wait is over. But no parent/patient advocate is disappointing. Especially after how hard we worked for 6 sessions to make this happen. @SafeAccessGA (Georgia’s Hope) still has a lot of work to do to make sure patients are the top priority of the commission. #gapol#cannabis
It was an honor to stand with @GovKemp, @GeoffDuncanGA & many of my colleagues for the announcement of the #GeorgiaAccess program. We’ve worked hard to make great strides in improving GA’s healthcare system and today’s announcement is the latest step in making families healthier!
Until Georgia leaders appoint members to a new commission, the expansion of the state's medical marijuana program is effectively stalled. #gapol https://t.co/qWRVUO6QGL
The culmination of 5 years of effort by some courageous families from Georgia’s Hope @SafeAccessGA upon @BrianKempGA@GovKemp’s signature. Then the crucial work of implementing the law will begin #gapol
Celebrating a very special moment, the passage of the #MedicalCannabis#MedicalMarijuana cultivation bill. Darn proud of @MicahGravley, @Vote_matt_brass and the family advocates @SafeAccessGA for all their hard work and perseverance to make it happen. #gapol
Breaking: Georgia lawmakers reached a tentative deal late Tuesday to allow medical marijuana patients to buy the drug that they're already allowed to use. #gapol https://t.co/nQHgT4obXW
