Bill Summary

As enacted, extends the medical cannabis commission to June 30, 2029. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 68, Chapter 7.

AI Summary

This bill makes technical amendments to Tennessee's legal code regarding the medical cannabis commission, extending its existence until June 30, 2029. Specifically, the bill removes a previous reference to the medical cannabis commission from one section of the Tennessee Code (Section 4-29-246(a), which eliminates subdivision (30)) and then adds a new reference to the medical cannabis commission in another section (Section 4-29-250(a)) by inserting language that explicitly recognizes the commission created by § 68-7-102. These changes appear to be administrative in nature, ensuring that the medical cannabis commission remains legally recognized and can continue its work. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, as stated in the final section, which emphasizes that the public welfare requires its prompt implementation.
