AN ACT PROHIBITING CANNABIS CONSUMPTION AT LOCATIONS WHERE TOBACCO USE IS PROHIBITED.
HB 5166 would prohibit cannabis consumption in any location where tobacco use is already banned, such as indoor public spaces, restaurants, and parks. This directly affects cannabis users and businesses enforcing tobacco restrictions, requiring them to extend those rules to cannabis consumption. The key provision amends existing laws to include cannabis under the same prohibitions as tobacco, without altering current tobacco ban policies. The bill focuses on aligning cannabis regulations with established tobacco restrictions at the point of enforcement.
