An Act relative to employment protections for medical marijuana patients

This bill amends Massachusetts law to protect medical marijuana patients from employment discrimination. It explicitly prohibits employers from firing, disciplining, or discriminating against current employees or job applicants solely because they use medical marijuana outside of the workplace. The legislation ensures that these protections apply regardless of other existing state or federal laws.
