An act relating to cannabis advertising
H.806 revises Vermont's restrictions on advertising by licensed cannabis businesses. It removes the requirement for administrative preapproval of all ads (including social media and email), while prohibiting claims about medical benefits, free samples, or ads targeting minors (limiting under-21 audiences to 30% in paid ads). The bill requires health warnings in third-party ads and allows business signage, news releases, and educational materials without preapproval. This directly affects licensed cannabis establishments across Vermont, aiming to balance constitutional speech rights with youth protection.
