New Hampshire Senate Committee Rejects Marijuana Legalization Bill That Passed House

Members of the panel voted 3–2 along party lines

New Hampshire’s Senate Judiciary Committee recommended killing a number of drug policy reform bills at a hearing on Tuesday, including measures to legalize simple marijuana possession by adults, increase medical cannabis possession limits and allow harm reduction organizations to legally use drug testing strips to check substances for contaminants.

Members of the panel voted 3–2 along party lines to designate all three proposals inexpedient to legislate, recommending that the full Senate reject them.

The committee also took testimony on three other drug-related bills—including measures that would decriminalize possession of psilocybin, allow greenhouse cultivation by existing medical marijuana businesses and lessen penalties for state-registered patients who illegally sell their marijuana—but did not act on those proposals.
