Constitutional Amendments - Cannabis

Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill proposes amending the North Carolina Constitution to allow for the qualified decriminalization and medical use of cannabis. If approved by voters in the November 3, 2026 election, possessing limited amounts of cannabis for personal use and for medical use by patients with qualifying conditions would no longer be a criminal offense, with the General Assembly to enact specific laws governing these uses.
