marijuana; conviction exclusion; cultivation

HCR 2037 is a proposed Arizona constitutional amendment (requiring voter approval) that would establish new regulations for the state's marijuana industry. It prohibits individuals convicted of violent crimes from holding leadership roles in marijuana businesses, sets specific cultivation limits (15,000 sq ft per license), and establishes strict residual solvent limits for products. The bill also mandates a seed-to-sale tracking system, prohibits interstate marijuana sales, and prepares businesses for potential federal registration. These rules apply directly to licensed marijuana establishments, testing facilities, and dual-license holders operating under Arizona's legal framework. If approved by voters, it would become law under the title "Arizona Marijuana Alignment and Public Safety Act."
