Edible cannabis products: labeling.

Existing law, the Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act (AUMA) , enacted by an initiative statute at the November 8, 2016, statewide general election, regulates the cultivation, distribution, and use of cannabis for nonmedical purposes by people 21 years of age and older, including edible cannabis products. Existing law places requirements on edible cannabis products, including that the cannabis product be marked with a universal symbol, as determined by the State Department of Public Health. This bill would amend the act by requiring the universal symbol required to be on edible cannabis product not sold as a liquid, loose bulk good, or powder to meet specified requirements, including that the symbol be placed directly on at least one side of each serving so as to be distinguishable and easily recognizable as well as size and placement requirements. AUMA authorizes the Legislature to amend, by a 23 vote, certain provisions of the act, provided that the amendments are consistent with and further the purposes and intent of the act. This bill would declare that its provisions further the purposes and the intent of the act.
