SB 809, the "Tennessee Cannabis Act," would establish a regulatory framework for cannabis in Tennessee, primarily affecting adults aged 21+ and businesses seeking to operate cannabis dispensaries. It defines key terms like "cannabis," "edible marijuana products," and "dispense," while requiring child-resistant packaging and prohibiting advertising near schools or parks. The bill creates licensing processes for cannabis businesses, sets standards for product testing and labeling, and outlines penalties for violations. This legislation would directly change how cannabis is legally sold and consumed in Tennessee, shifting from prohibition to a regulated system.
