An Act relative to fines for violations of cannabis advertising regulations

This bill directs the Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission to conduct a study on how to improve fines for companies that break cannabis advertising rules. The study will also examine how money collected from these fines should be spent, specifically looking at investing it in communities harmed by illegal advertising through programs like DARE and extracurricular activities. The commission must submit its findings and recommendations to the state legislature by January 1, 2025. Currently, the bill does not change any fine amounts but instead sets up a process to review and potentially update them.
