Cannabis Legalization North Carolina: Senate Leads Amid House Impasse for 2025 Reform
North Carolina remains one of the few states without a medical cannabis program, despite strong support among voters. In recent years, the North Carolina Senate has passed medical cannabis legalization bills in both 2022 and 2023—most notably, a 36-10 supermajority in support of allowing qualified patients access to cannabis. However, these efforts have stalled in the House, leaving the state’s medical cannabis future uncertain as we look toward 2025.
