HB 5442 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Marihuana: licenses; new licenses for certain types of marihuana establishments; prohibit the cannabis regulatory agency from issuing. Amends secs. 7, 8, 9 & 9a of 2018 IL 1 (MCL 333.27957 et seq.) & adds sec. 9b. TIE BAR WITH: HB 5444'25, HB 5443'25, HB 5441'25

This bill prohibits Michigan's cannabis regulatory agency from issuing new licenses for certain types of cannabis establishments. It amends the Marihuana Regulation and Taxation Act by adding Section 9b, which specifically blocks the agency from granting licenses for these defined business types. The key mechanism is a direct restriction on the agency's licensing authority under Section 9b, preventing new applications for those specific establishment categories. This change affects future applicants seeking licenses for the prohibited business types but does not alter existing licensing or other aspects of the cannabis regulatory framework.
