An act relating to consumption of cannabis in a prohibited place

This bill prohibits consuming cannabis (including smoking or vaping) in public places where tobacco use is already banned, such as streets, parks, sidewalks, and public buildings. It aligns cannabis consumption rules with existing tobacco restrictions, applying to all individuals regardless of age. The law defines "public prohibited places" as areas where tobacco use is prohibited under state law, and violations would be punished under existing cannabis possession penalties. It does not affect current laws about driving under the influence, school policies, or local ordinances on cannabis use. The bill takes effect July 1, 2026.
