Summary

The bill lets licensed cannabis retailers give free cannabis or cannabis products to people 65 years and older, or to a designated senior caregiver, without charging tax. Retailers must record the donation in the state’s track‑and‑trace system, keep identification on file, and follow daily possession limits. The state will not reimburse local governments for any lost tax revenue, and the Legislative Analyst’s Office must report on the program each year.
