A group of eight Minnesota lawmakers has introduced House Bill 2699, which would decriminalize the personal use, cultivation, and possession of psilocybin.
Dried psilocybin mushrooms.
The bill, filed today, has been referred to the House Health Finance and Policy Committee for further review.
Under House File 2699, those 21 and older would be allowed to cultivate psilocybin mushrooms for personal use, possess up to a one-year supply, and share small amounts with other adults without financial exchange. The bill also includes provisions to establish a Psychedelic Medicine Board, which would oversee the implementation of new policies, determine possession limits, and ensure harm reduction practices.
The legislation explicitly prohibits psilocybin use in public places, schools, or while operating a motor vehicle. It also includes employment and housing protections for users, preventing discrimination based on lawful psilocybin use.
HF 2699 is part of a growing national trend toward psychedelic policy reform, following Oregon and Colorado’s voting to legalize psilocybin in recent years.
