The Natural Medicine Alliance of Idaho has announced the submission of over 150,000 signatures from voters in support of legalizing medical marijuana in Idaho, a state that currently prohibits all forms of cannabis. To qualify the Idaho Medical Cannabis Act for the November 2026 ballot, the initiative must gather signatures from 6% of the electorate in 18 of the state’s 35 counties. Amanda Watson, the campaign's communications lead, expressed pride in the team's efforts, stating that the signatures were collected from all 44 counties in Idaho by the May 1 deadline. County clerks have until June 30 to verify these signatures, after which certified totals will be submitted to the Idaho Secretary of State’s Office to determine if the measure qualifies for the ballot. If passed, the act would allow doctors to recommend marijuana for various medical conditions, enabling patients to purchase up to 113 grams of smokeable cannabis or 20 grams of THC extract monthly. Advocates argue that this initiative is crucial for providing patients with access to therapeutic options available in neighboring states.
