STATE HOUSE — Highly potent edible forms of marijuana make up nearly half the legalized market in Colorado and have had dangerous consequences for adults and children, according to a Massachusetts senator who returned last week from a research trip.
Back from what he called an "eye-opening trip," Sen. Jason Lewis says Massachusetts needs to be prepared for challenges, including the need for increased financial resources to regulate the industry, if voters legalize marijuana use by approving a ballot question in November.
