The bill aims to protect parental rights by amending section 39.806 of the Florida Statutes. It specifically prohibits courts from denying or restricting a parent's custody, visitation rights, or parenting time with a minor child solely based on the parent's status as a qualified patient for medical marijuana use. Additionally, the bill establishes that there is no presumption of neglect or child endangerment based solely on this status.

To implement these changes, the bill introduces new legal language that redefines the grounds for termination of parental rights, ensuring that a parent's medical marijuana use does not negatively impact their parental rights in court proceedings. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
