Bill Summary

AN ACT Relating to authorizing agricultural cooperatives for 2 cannabis producers; and amending RCW 69.50.325 and 24.34.010. 3

AI Summary

This bill allows licensed cannabis producers in Washington to form associations or cooperatives, similar to how other agricultural producers can work together to process, market, and handle their products. Specifically, it amends existing laws to recognize cannabis as an agricultural product for the purposes of these associations and clarifies that these cooperatives can engage in activities outlined in RCW 24.34.010, which governs agricultural cooperatives. A key provision is that no single association or cooperative representing cannabis producers can represent more than three producer licenses issued by the state's liquor and cannabis board at any given time.
