House members in Maryland’s General Assembly are weighing legislation that would allow firefighters across the state to use medical marijuana while off-duty.
Howard County, which made it legal in December 2025, may be seen as the guiding light on this bill.
The proposed bill says that firefighters must stop using medical marijuana 12 hours before their shift starts.
The bill has already passed in the state’s Senate.
