Health care facilities may adopt reasonable restrictions on medical cannabis use by registry patients, including storage requirements and location specifications, but cannot unreasonably limit access or prohibit use solely because cannabis is federally controlled.

Schools cannot refuse to enroll patients or penalize them solely for registry enrollment unless doing so would violate federal law or cause loss of federal monetary or licensing benefits.

Landlords cannot refuse to lease to patients or penalize them solely for registry enrollment unless doing so would violate federal law or cause loss of federal monetary or licensing benefits.

Employers, schools, and landlords who take adverse action against patients must provide written notice citing the specific federal law or regulations that would be violated and any federal benefits that would be lost; failure to provide notice is a violation.

Civil penalty for violations increased from $100 to $1,000 plus reasonable attorney fees, and patients may seek injunctive relief; schools, landlords, health care facilities, and employers are prohibited from retaliating against patients for asserting their rights.
