Bill Summary
Revise marijuana laws regarding synthetic marijuana products
AI Summary
This bill revises Montana's marijuana laws to prohibit the manufacture and distribution of synthetic marijuana products. It provides definitions for terms like "synthetic cannabinoids" and "synthetic marijuana product", and outlines enforcement mechanisms, including allowing local governments to impose regulations and giving state agencies the authority to investigate and issue cease and desist orders. The bill also creates a temporary Synthetic Marijuana Products Advisory Council to review research and make recommendations on regulating these products. Additionally, the bill clarifies that selling or giving synthetic marijuana products to children is considered an unlawful transaction, and that falsely labeling marijuana as hemp is considered altering labels on dangerous drugs. The bill also includes an appropriation and various effective date and termination provisions.
