Summary

The legislation removes the 30% THC limit for cannabis flower, raises the concentrate cap to 70%, and allows retailers to sell up to two ounces per transaction. It creates event, delivery, and on‑premises consumption permits, changes advertising rules, lowers the excise tax to 10%, and forces municipalities that haven’t voted to decide on cannabis retailers in the 2026 general election. The changes aim to modernize the market, give localities more control, and support equity‑focused businesses.
