Idaho Senate considers constitutional changes to regulate cannabis
What happened
The Idaho Senate legislated on weed and narcotics on October 23, 2026. House Joint Resolution Four could give the state authority to legalize marijuana. If this resolution passes, it would allow the Senate to introduce a bill, giving the Senate exclusive authority over weed and narcotics legislation and removing the possibility of citizen ballot measures.
