Former Albany Mayor Gerald Jennings, who has close ties to Gov. Cuomo, has been hired as a "consultant" for one of the groups considering seeking a license to manufacture and dispense medical marijuana in New York.
Jennings insists that despite his friendship with Cuomo, he will not do any lobbying but will instead provide advice to the group, which he would not name.
Passed last year, the state's medical marijuana law allows for the licensing of five organizations to grow and distribute the medical marijuana.
The bill allows medical marijuana to treat 10 serious illnesses and conditions, including cancer, HIV and AIDS, Lou Gehrig's, Parkinson's and Huntington's diseases, epilepsy, some spinal cord injuries and multiple sclerosis.
