MESSAGES FROM THE GOVERNOR

Senate Bill No. 250

An Act concerning health and healthcare; relating to treatments for life-threatening illnesses; enacting the right to try for individualized treatments act to permit certain manufacturers to make individualized investigative treatments available to eligible requesting patients.

Message to the Legislature of the State of Kansas:

This bill gives Kansans with debilitating disease the option to make choices about their medical care. Now I think it’s time for the Legislature to finally legalize medical Marijuana, giving the Kansans suffering from chronic pain, or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and children suffering with Dravet’s Syndrome (epilepsy) the choice of the treatment they and their doctors determine best suits their needs.

Laura Kelly, Governor

Dated April 9, 2025.
