Pertaining to the right of lawful medical cannabis card holders, and their caregivers

HB 4150 would amend West Virginia law to protect medical cannabis card holders and their caregivers from being denied the right to own, purchase, or possess firearms solely because of their medical cannabis status. The bill explicitly prohibits state and local authorities from restricting these firearm rights based on a person's status as a medical cannabis patient or caregiver. Existing restrictions on firearm possession - such as those for felony convictions, mental health issues, or domestic violence - remain in place. This bill does not override federal law, which still prohibits firearm ownership for cannabis users under federal law.
