New Hampshire legislation to legalize psilocybin, which was initially scheduled for a public hearing February 6, is now scheduled for a hearing on February 12.
Dried psilocybin mushrooms (often referred to as “magic mushrooms”).
The hearing will take place in the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee in Legislative Office Building 202-204, at 3:30pm. The hearing was initially set to take place on February 6, before being cancelled. Today, the measure was rescheduled.
Filed by State Representative Kevin Verville (R), House Bill 528 would legalize purchasing, possessing, transporting, sharing, and using psilocybin, for those 21 and older.
If the measure is passed into law, it would take effect on January 1, 2026. New Hampshire would become the third state to legalize psilocybin, following Colorado and Oregon.
State Rep. Verville also recently introduced legislation to legalize recreational marijuana.
