Bill Summary
RESOLUTION URGING THE HAWAII CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION AND STATE OFFICIALS TO SUPPORT THE MARIJUANA IN FEDERALLY ASSISTED HOUSING PARITY ACT OF 2021 AND REQUESTING ASSISTANCE FROM THE DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION TO RESOLVE THE CONFLICT BETWEEN THE FEDERAL REGULATION OF MARIJUANA AND STATE-AUTHORIZED USE OF CANNABIS IN HAWAII. .
AI Summary
This Concurrent Resolution urges Hawaii's elected officials and state agencies to support a federal bill called the Marijuana in Federally Assisted Housing Parity Act of 2021, which would allow individuals to use marijuana in housing receiving federal assistance if it's legal in their state, similar to how tobacco smoking is regulated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). It also requests the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), a federal agency responsible for enforcing drug laws, to help resolve the conflict between federal marijuana prohibition and Hawaii's state-approved medical cannabis program, which has led to problems like evictions for registered patients from federally subsidized housing.
