Voters in Massachusetts approved a ballot question on Election Day to legalize recreational marijuana and doctors in the state are concerned. At a recent meeting, the Massachusetts Medical Society passed resolutions on a number of issues including recreational marijuana, drug prices, aid-in dying and concussions. 

Medical Society President Dr. James Gessner tells WAMC News that doctors are concerned about marijuana getting into the hands of young people.
