State Rep. Allen Peake, left,, R-Macon, standing with House Speaker David Ralston, acknowledges a standing ovation after the House overwhelmingly passed House Bill 1, Wednesday, Feb. 25, 2015, in Atlanta, to legalize cannabis oil for the treatment of nine major health problems, including sickle cell disease.
