Legislation to remove criminal penalties for possessing and using marijuana and marijuana-infused products for those 21 and older has been given approval by the New Hampshire House of Representatives.
House Bill 75 was filed by State Representative Kevin Verville (R) in December 2024. Today, the measure was given approval by the House of Representatives. The measure will now be sent to the Senate for consideration.
The measure would legalize cannabis for everyone 21 and older by removing criminal penalties for possessing and using dried marijuana, as well as marijuana-infused products such as concentrates and edibles. The proposal would not establish a regulated recreational cannabis market.
