A RESOLUTION urging the United States Congress to allow users of medical cannabis to own firearms.

This resolution asks the Kentucky House to formally urge the U.S. Congress to change federal law so that people who use medical cannabis are not prohibited from owning firearms. Under current federal law, cannabis users are barred from purchasing or possessing guns, and this resolution expresses Kentucky's position that medical cannabis patients should be exempt from that restriction. It is a statement of legislative opinion and does not itself change any law. Who it may affect: Kentuckians who use or may seek to use medical cannabis and who also wish to legally own firearms.
