New Hampshire SB462 ensures that therapeutic cannabis patients retain their right to purchase, possess, and transfer firearms.

New Hampshire SB462 amends RSA 126-X:2 by adding a new paragraph XVIII, clarifying that a qualifying patient's use of cannabis for therapeutic purposes does not impact their rights under state law to purchase, possess, and transfer firearms. This change aims to protect the rights of therapeutic cannabis patients while ensuring compliance with existing firearms regulations. The act will take effect 60 days after its passage.
