MA H4050Introducedas of 2025-04-22

To amend the General Laws, in relation to promoting the health and well-being of the residents of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts by establishing a comprehensive framework supporting public health and safety through regulated adult use, support services, and cultivation of psilocybin-containing fungi; and providing for taxation and appropriation thereof

Plain-English summary

What happened: A Massachusetts bill that would establish a comprehensive regulated adult-use psilocybin framework including cultivation, support services, taxation, and appropriations has been referred to a study order (H5318), effectively pausing further legislative action.

Why it matters: A regulated psilocybin market would create new licensed business categories for cultivators and service providers, but the study order delays any near-term commercial opportunity.

Affects: cultivators and retailers

LATEST ACTION: Accompanied a study order, see H5318
