Legal status of cannabis at the US airport
Although legal to buy and use marijuana if you are 21 years and over in San Francisco, this drug remains illegal at the federal level.Many places in California are supervised by federal authorities, including the airport.
Transportation Security Administration (TSA) states that its officers are required to report any alleged violations of the law to local, state or federal authorities.”The TSA search procedure focuses on security and is designed to detect potential threats to flights and passengers,” the organization said.
“Therefore, TSA security officers do not look for marijuana or other illegal drugs, but if there are illegal substances found during the security examination, TSA will submit the problem to law enforcement officers.”
Many airports in the US, such as O’hare International Airport in Chicago, have marijuana amnesty boxes for travelers.
