AI Summary

This bill clarifies that any city, town, or district that has already prohibited smoking on public property is considered to have also prohibited the smoking of any marijuana, including for medical use, unless they have specifically voted to allow it. This means that existing rules against smoking in public places automatically apply to medical marijuana smoking, and such prohibition will not be seen as discrimination against individuals with medical conditions. The bill also states that it will become effective immediately upon its passage.
