This bill repeals legal protections that currently shield medical cannabis dispensaries and cultivation facilities from prosecution, searches, seizures, and penalties when they operate according to state law. After this repeal, medical cannabis businesses would no longer have immunity from criminal charges, law enforcement searches, or civil penalties for activities like possessing, transporting, selling, or testing cannabis products that comply with state regulations. Essentially, the bill removes the legal safeguards that allow these businesses to operate without fear of state prosecution.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
