Public Health Trust Fund; divert a certain percentage of funds collected under the Medical Cannabis Act into for 4 years.
HB 513 redirects 12.5% of annual fees and tax revenues collected under Mississippi's Medical Cannabis Act into the Mississippi Public Health Trust Fund for four years, ending July 1, 2030. The bill specifies that this amount equals the previous year's total cannabis revenue minus funds allocated for program administration. The remainder of these revenues continues to go to the State General Fund. This policy change directly affects how cannabis program funding is distributed, prioritizing public health initiatives during the four-year period.
