Montel Williams, the former talk show host who now suffers from multiple sclerosis, is making the rounds here at the State Capitol today in hopes of encouraging the legalization of medical marijuana in New York.
Williams, who uses marijuana to ease the effects of his condition, noted 14 states and the District of Columbia have passed MM laws, and many other state legislatures are now considering it.
It's questionable whether the New York measure will make it through, and officials including Mayor Bloomberg have issued strenuous objections to its passage.
I had a chance to chat briefly with Williams, who says he's not giving up hope.

As a mother of a man with MS, I am all for medical marijuana. So glad to see Montel Williams has not forgotten about all that suffer with MS. I would like to know what medicines he is on and his treatment. He looks better than ever. I just watched him on TV awards the other nite, he walks great and is active in all his other projects. How can I find out. We should all write to NY Senator Chuck Schumer. I support him 100%, he always helps whenever I contact him.
Montel is currently NOT using any of the DMD's -- just his vitamins, herbs, exercise and fortunate way of living...
