A marijuana legalization advocate said State Senate supporters are not giving up hope yet for full legalization.

“We’re not ready for Plan B yet. Plan A is still alive and kicking," said State Sen. Diane Savino, a Staten Island Democrat and sponsor of the 2014 State Senate legislation that legalized medical marijuana in New York State.

Senators are reviewing new amendments that backers hope will turn some no or maybe votes to yes. “Hopefully, we’ll be able to get people to a comfortable place," Savino said.

But if Plan B becomes the option, Savino said medical marijuana laws need to be improved. Since the program’s start, lawmakers have been tinkering with the law to permit more health conditions to be covered for the drug’s use and additional suppliers have been added to the system.

Savino said the original law was “deliberately narrow in scope.” Peoples-Stokes added, “It was really not done right when it was done because of the governor’s hesitation about its real medicinal value."
