AN ACT RELATING TO FOOD AND DRUGS -- THE RHODE ISLAND CANNABIS ACT
Signed by Governor
Summary
The bill updates key definitions in the state’s cannabis law, clarifying who can apply for a license and what constitutes adult‑use cannabis. It voids the earlier social‑equity certification and retail license applications, orders the Cannabis Control Commission to reopen those processes within 60 days, and shields the commission from liability for past fees. The changes become effective once the law is enacted.
