A wide-ranging bill moving Georgia to voting machines with electronic ballot markers that print a paper record has been introduced in the Georgia House.

Georgia may soon allow the production and sale of low-potency medical marijuana oil within the state.

The new measure, introduced Thursday in the Georgia House, would give patients who are already allowed to possess low potency marijuana oil access to the product. It would close a loophole created by the state's 2015 medical marijuana law that allowed patients to possess the drug but provided no real way to obtain it.

Athens Neighborhood Health Center will celebrate the grand opening of its new pharmacy on Tuesday. Mayor Kelly Girtz will preside over the Feb. 19 open house.

Tours of the new location will be conducted all day from 8 p.m. to 6 p.m. with a ribbon cutting ceremony at 11 a.m.

The ANHC pharmacy is able to provide “drastically reduced drug prices,” thanks to subsidies from pharmaceutical manufacturers and the federal government.

Patients with maintenance drugs costing as much as $600 to $900 monthly have seen reductions to $150 to $200 monthly, according to ANHC.
