Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act; remove potency limits for cannabis flower and trim and for cannabis tinctures, oils and concentrates.
SB 2455, titled the "Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act," focuses on administrative and operational rules for medical cannabis establishments rather than removing potency limits as its title suggests. The bill requires background checks for all medical cannabis workers, sets age and felony restrictions for employees, and mandates facility security and record-keeping procedures. It maintains a 30% THC potency limit for cannabis products but adds labeling requirements for products exceeding this threshold (e.g., "extremely potent" labels) and specifies dispensing limits (24 MMCEUs per 30 days for cardholders). The bill directly affects licensed medical cannabis businesses, their employees, and patients using the state’s medical program.
