House Concurrent Resolution No. 5028 proposes an amendment to the Kansas Constitution to establish a constitutional right for adults to possess and use cannabis. The resolution outlines that this right would be subject to reasonable laws and regulations aimed at protecting public health, safety, and general welfare. The amendment is intended to be submitted to the qualified electors of Kansas for their approval or rejection during the general election in November 2026, unless a special election is called sooner.

The resolution includes an explanatory statement that will be printed on the ballot, clarifying that a vote in favor of the proposition would create the right for adults to possess and use cannabis, while a vote against it would maintain the current constitutional status quo. For the resolution to proceed, it requires the approval of two-thirds of the members in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, after which it will be recorded in the legislative journals and published as mandated by law.
