Bill > S96

This bill proposes significant new regulations on marijuana potency and product characteristics in Massachusetts. Specifically, it establishes strict limits on THC content and product formulations, including a prohibition on marijuana flower with over 10% THC, restrictions on marijuana concentrates to no more than 5mg THC per serving or 10% total potency, and mandates that concentrated marijuana products provide clear, measured 5mg THC servings. The bill also prohibits marijuana products with added sweeteners, characterizing flavors intended for inhalation, products containing non-cannabis-derived substances that alter the product's properties, liquid marijuana products for oral consumption (except tinctures), and components designed to enhance psychological intoxication. These comprehensive restrictions aim to address potential public health concerns by limiting the potency and appeal of marijuana products, particularly those that might be attractive to younger consumers or pose increased health risks due to high THC concentration or added ingredients.
