The law prohibits any official, officer, employee, or agent of the state or a political subdivision of the state from enforcing or administering any executive order issued by the president that “limits or restricts the ownership, use, or possession of firearms, ammunition, or firearm accessories by law-abiding residents of the state.” The bill also bans the expenditure of state or local funds for the enforcement of the same.
The new law modifies state regulations to make it easier for small farmers to access the state’s legal marijuana market. Under the law, the state will regulate the activities of a licensed small cannabis cultivator as “farming,” amend the criteria regarding the area for cultivating cannabis commercially and for personal cultivation, and allow licensed cultivators to purchase and sell seeds and immature plants to one another and for licensed wholesalers to sell such products to licensed cultivators.
Under the proposed law, patients would be able to access cannabis on a physician's recommendation if they suffer from a “debilitating medical condition” such as cancer, epilepsy, HIV/AIDS, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and post-traumatic stress disorder.
