New Hampshire

Three New Hampshire legislators have filed separate proposals to put adult-use cannabis constitutional amendment questions on the 2022 ballot.

New Hampshire House lawmakers have approved legislation for the third time in as many years to legalize adult-use cannabis; the proposal, however, stops short of regulating commercial sales.

2020 could be a momentous year for legalization in New England, with sweeping cannabis reforms currently being considered in Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Vermont.

Separate New Hampshire Senate committees have pushed back against cannabis reform legislation, effectively killing the state’s legalization opportunities for 2020.

New Hampshire lawmakers have blocked a governor veto against medical cannabis expansions in the state; the veto would have cemented the state’s three-month waiting period before approved cannabis patients could access their medicine.

Registered patients in New Hampshire would be allowed go grow 3 immature, 6 mature, and 12 seedlings after registering with the state under the bill.

A bill that would legalize home growing for medical cannabis patients has successfully passed the New Hampshire House of Representatives.

Another state Supreme Court has ruled that medical cannabis treatments should be covered by workers compensation insurance.

The legalization bill now advances to the Senate but Republican Gov. Chris Sununu has already promised to veto the legislation if it were to reach his desk.
