REQUESTING THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS TO REMOVE CANNABIS FROM THE FEDERAL CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES ACT, PROVIDE SUPPORT TO STATES THAT ARE CLEARING DEFENDANTS' RECORDS OF CANNABIS OFFENSES, AND FACILITATE ACCESS TO THE FULL SPECTRUM OF BANKING SERVICES FOR CANNABIS-RELATED BUSINESSES.

Summary

The resolution urges the U.S. Congress to remove cannabis from the federal Controlled Substances Act, to aid states that are clearing cannabis‑related convictions, and to let cannabis businesses access full banking services. It targets people with past cannabis arrests, cannabis dispensaries, and related companies that currently lack banking options. The measure reflects Hawaii’s own decriminalization and growing medical‑cannabis market.
