Understanding Florida Medical Marijuana Laws

It’s important to know that Florida state medical marijuana laws are different from federal law. As it stands, marijuana, even medical marijuana, is illegal federally.

Keep in mind that every state has different laws regarding marijuana. As of May 2021, in the United States; it is legal in 36 states, four out of five permanently inhabited US territories, and the District of Columbia to use marijuana for medical purposes. While medical marijuana is legal in the state of Florida, recreational use of marijuana is strictly illegal.

Legalizing medical marijuana in Florida was a long process. But, in 2018, a Leon County Circuit Court judge decided that illegalizing and banning smokable marijuana was unconstitutional and ordered the Florida government to change the law.

Subsequently, in 2019, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed Session Bill 182 into law, repealing the ban on smoking marijuana for medical patients.
