Democratic gubernatorial candidate Jennifer McCormick said she would draw from lessons learned in other states to craft a "well-regulated" cannabis industry.

Indiana is one of 12 states that does not have a comprehensive medical cannabis program and one of fewer than 20 where people can still be incarcerated for possession.

The federal proposal would make marijuana a Schedule III drug — on par with ketamine, some steroids and Tylenol with codeine.

House bill 1297 would decriminalize possession of small amounts of cannabis -- two ounces or less for those 21 and older.
