HB 1211 creates a digital registry identification card system for medical cannabis patients in South Dakota, allowing them to prove their legal eligibility to possess and use medical cannabis. The bill updates the state's medical cannabis law to clarify the types of cards available (including cards that permit home cultivation) and defines key terms like what counts as an "allowable amount" of cannabis for cardholders. This digital card system would make it easier for patients to demonstrate compliance with state law when purchasing or possessing medical cannabis.
