Plain-English Summary

The proposal would allow people living in federally funded housing to use marijuana for medical purposes without risking eviction or losing their housing assistance, bringing federal housing rules in line with state marijuana laws. Currently, public housing authorities can evict residents for any marijuana use, even in states where it's legal, because federal law still classifies marijuana as illegal. This change would affect millions of low-income renters who depend on federal housing programs.
