Bill > SB01208

This bill addresses electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) dealers who are found in possession of cannabis or cannabis products illegally. Specifically, the bill mandates that if state or municipal authorities seize cannabis or cannabis products from an ENDS dealer on three or more separate occasions, the Commissioner of Consumer Protection must permanently revoke the dealer's registration and order the permanent closure of their business. An electronic nicotine delivery system, commonly known as an e-cigarette or vaping device, is a battery-operated device that heats a liquid to produce an aerosol that users inhale. The bill aims to discourage ENDS dealers from engaging in illegal cannabis possession by implementing a strict, cumulative penalty that results in the complete shutdown of their business after multiple infractions. This approach serves as a significant deterrent by removing the dealer's ability to continue operating in the market after repeated violations.
