Relating to the medical use of low-THC cannabis under and the administration of the Texas Compassionate-Use Program.

SB 1505 modifies Texas law governing the Compassionate-Use Program for low-THC cannabis, directly affecting dispensing organizations and patients registered in the program. The bill allows dispensaries to use satellite locations for secure storage without needing additional licenses if the location was included in their initial application or approved by the department. It sets a statewide cap of six dispensing licenses and requires the department to issue licenses to ensure adequate access for patients in each public health region. License holders must begin operations within 24 months of receiving their license and maintain ongoing dispensing.
