Currently, thirty-seven states - two thirds of the United States - have laws permitting medical use of marijuana, and fifteen of these states also fully permit recreational use. The District of Columbia permits both uses. However, any use of marijuana remains a federal offense, and therefore conviction, admission of use, and even lawful employment in the growing cannabis industry can bring terrible immigration consequences. The Trump Administration made it official policy that even immigrants who used marijuana in good faith and following state law should be punished.
This interactive, national webinar will cover how state-legalized marijuana is helpful to immigrants, how it is potentially harmful, and strategies for how to advise and defend noncitizens in order to prevent legal damage. We also will discuss how the laws may change under the Biden Administration and the next Congress.
