Medical Cannabis Clarification Supplemental Congressional Review Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2024
This resolution declares an emergency to keep certain temporary rules in place until a permanent law is finalized. It ensures that existing medical cannabis facilities have a deadline to apply for new licenses and prevents cultivation centers from also operating as online retailers. The measure also resolves a tie between two applicants for cultivation center spots and allows high-scoring applicants to change their facility locations without restarting their applications. These provisions were originally set to expire in May 2024 but are extended to maintain stability in the medical cannabis program.
