Marijuana in Federally Assisted Housing Parity Act of 2025

This bill would change federal housing laws so that using, possessing, selling, distributing, or making marijuana in compliance with the law of the State where it happens is not treated as drug-related criminal activity or illegal drug use. Public housing agencies and owners of federally assisted housing could not set standards that bar households from admission because a member engages in State-legal marijuana activity. The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development could not prohibit or discourage State-legal marijuana activity in federally assisted housing. Within 90 days of enactment, the Secretary would have to issue rules limiting marijuana smoking in federally assisted housing in the same way and places that tobacco smoking is limited in public housing.
