Overall, CANNRA’s message focused on promoting uniformity, predictability, and transparency. For instance, as it relates to consumer and product safety standards, CANNRA emphasized that “[s]tates employ different standards and review processes for product packaging and labeling requirements; including what constitutes ‘child resistant’ packaging, what branding is deemed ‘attractive’ to children, what product warnings must be displayed, and identifying symbols that must be incorporated to alert consumers that products contain THC and can cause impairment.” As it relates to banking and financial services, CANNRA stressed that “[d]epository banking and electronic payment processing systems facilitate tax collection and create greater transparency and auditability, providing cannabis and financial regulators with more tools and data to determine compliance with state and federal requirements.”
