HCR 2029 prohibits certain marijuana businesses from operating in unincorporated areas completely surrounded by Indian reservations in Arizona. Specifically, it prevents the issuance of licenses for nonprofit medical marijuana dispensaries, commercial marijuana establishments, and marijuana testing facilities in those locations. The bill creates a geographic restriction based on being encircled by tribal lands within unincorporated territory. If approved by voters, this policy change would directly affect businesses seeking to operate in such areas. The measure is a referendum requiring voter approval before becoming law.
