Understanding Cannabis Laws When Traveling As cannabis laws continue to change throughout the United States, it can be difficult to keep up with what is and isn't allowed. Whether you're a business traveler or a recreational tourist, it's important to be aware of the various laws governing cannabis possession and consumption. The biggest challenge in understanding the rules is that there are three different set of laws at play: state, federal, and international. Although marijuana is legal in some states for medical and/or recreational use, that legality may not extend across state lines. For example, although both medical marijuana and adult recreational marijuana are legal in Michigan, all forms of marijuana are illegal in Kansas. This means that if you are found to possess marijuana in Kansas, you could be held accountable to the state’s laws, even if you are a resident of Michigan and purchased it there legally. It's important to do your research before traveling so you know what is and isn't allowed in each state.
