Florida Senate Approves Higher Medical Cannabis Supply Limits and Lower Fees for Veterans

Florida is finally making some moves that actually help patients instead of just adding more red tape. Senators recently cleared a bill that would seriously bump up medical marijuana supply limits, allowing doctors to recommend more flower and concentrates per cycle. Even better, they’re looking to slash the medical card fee for veterans from $75 down to just $15. The legislation also aims to extend the mandatory doctor re-evaluation period to once a year, rather than every 30 weeks. While they’re still trying to push a public smoking ban, the focus on affordability and access is a breath of fresh air.

For the Florida cannabis community, this is a massive win for consistency and your wallet. Reducing the frequency of expensive doctor visits and lowering fees for those who served means more people can stay in the legal program without going broke. It’s a major step toward treating cannabis like the essential medicine it is, ensuring that accessibility isn't just for those with deep pockets.
