-
Can I be denied a job if I have a medical marijuana card in Pennsylvania?
No. In Pennsylvania, under Chapter 21 of Act 16, employers are prohibited from discriminating against employees solely because they are medical marijuana patients.
-
Can I own a gun and have a medical marijuana card in Pennsylvania?
No. Marijuana remains a federally illegal substance. According to current regulations, it is not permissible to legally own a firearm while holding a PA medical marijuana card. When purchasing a firearm from a licensed dealer, you are required to complete form 4473, which includes question 11e: "Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?" It is important to note that, under Federal law, the use or possession of marijuana is unlawful, regardless of its legalization or decriminalization for medicinal or recreational use in your state. Answering "No" to this question while possessing a valid medical marijuana card could potentially lead to charges such as perjury.
-
Can an employer fire you for having a medical marijuana card in Pennsylvania?
While the answer is generally no, there are important nuances to consider. Under the PA Medical Marijuana Act of 2016, employers are prohibited from terminating an employee solely due to their qualification and use of medical marijuana. The act clearly states: "No employer may discharge, threaten, refuse to hire or otherwise discriminate or retaliate against an employee regarding an employee’s compensation, terms, conditions, location or privileges solely on the basis of such employee’s status as an individual who is certified to use medical marijuana." However, federal employers may have the authority to terminate employees, as they must comply with federal law.
-
Can I purchase products from a dispensary before my medical marijuana card arrives in Pennsylvania?
Unfortunately, you cannot visit a dispensary before your medical card is issued. Accessing or purchasing from a dispensary in Pennsylvania requires a valid medical marijuana card along with a photo ID or driver's license.
