New Hampshire Senate Committee Takes Up Several Cannabis Bills That Were Passed By The House
Members of a New Hampshire Senate committee on Tuesday heard testimony on a series of House-passed bills regarding marijuana—from allowing medical patients to grow cannabis at home to full-blown, unregulated legalization—but opted not to take immediate action on any of the legislation.
The hearing comes ahead of expected House floor action on additional drug reform measures later this week, including a separate legalization proposal and a plan to decriminalize psilocybin.
Four cannabis related bills were before the Senate Judiciary Committee, including two from Rep. Wendy Thomas (D) related to medical dispensaries and homegrow, one from Rep. Jonah Wheeler (D) to ease the state process for annulling past cannabis crimes and another from Rep. Kevin Verville (R) that would legalize marijuana among adults 21 and older and leave sales of the drug unregulated.
