An Act relative to cannabis use by first responders

This bill directs the Cannabis Control Commission to study and report on the barriers preventing first responders from legally using cannabis in Massachusetts. The study will examine drug testing policies, internal agency rules, and the potential benefits of cannabis for treating conditions like PTSD and anxiety. The commission is also tasked with comparing these issues against laws in other states and relevant federal regulations. The final report must be submitted to various legislative committees by December 31, 2024.
