Relative to the personal possession of cannabis. Providing that adults 21 years of age or older shall have the right to possess a modest amount of cannabis intended for their personal consumption.

Plain-English summary

What happened: A New Hampshire bill that would have established the right of adults 21 and older to personally possess a modest amount of cannabis for personal consumption failed in the House by a vote of 115–220 in March 2026.

Why it matters: Defeat of the measure keeps personal cannabis possession illegal in New Hampshire, leaving no legal consumer base for potential retail or cultivation operations in the state.

Affects: retailers and cultivators and patients

LATEST ACTION: Special Order to next order of business (Rep. A. Murray): Motion Failed DV 115-220 03/11/2026 House Journal 8 P. 91
