SERGEANT KITZHABER MEDICAL CANNABIS ACT – Amends and adds to existing law to authorize the possession, transportation, and use of cannabis for medical purposes and to provide that marijuana and tetrahydrocannabinols or synthetic equivalents are Schedule II controlled substances.

This bill would legalize medical cannabis use in Idaho for patients with qualifying conditions, allowing possession, transportation, and use of cannabis products under strict state regulations. It establishes a state-issued card system for patients and caregivers, requires electronic verification for purchases, and limits products to 100ml of liquid or 10 tablets/capsules per package. The bill reclassifies cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule II controlled substances under Idaho law and clarifies that insurers are not required to cover medical cannabis. It also defines specific medical uses, prohibits public consumption, and sets up a regulatory framework for pharmacies and healthcare providers.
