Summary

The measure removes the six‑month mandatory check‑in after a doctor certifies a patient for medical cannabis, while still allowing doctors to request a follow‑up if they wish. It also extends the expiration of registry ID cards for designated caregivers from one to two years and eliminates THC potency caps on tinctures, oils and concentrates. Additional provisions tighten background‑check rules for cannabis businesses and set possession and labeling limits.
