TRENTON – New Jersey's medical marijuana advocates are working to push the government to implement the new state law legalizing cannabis for people suffering from certain conditions.
About 70 activists gathered today in Trenton to discuss how to get the regulations in place so patients can access marijuana.
The law adopted in January called for regulations drafted by June, but the deadline was pushed back to October.
A Health Department spokeswoman says the state is developing a system for patients to register and working on other details.
Ken Wolski, executive director of the Coalition for Medical Marijuana of New Jersey, says he's hopeful patients will have legal access by the spring of 2011.
