Bill Summary

AN ACT RELATING TO THE ISSUANCE OF MEDICAL CANNABIDIOL REGISTRATION CARDS AND LICENSURE OF MEDICAL CANNABIDIOL DISPENSARIES.

AI Summary

This bill, effective July 1, 2026, makes several changes to the laws governing medical cannabidiol in Iowa. It removes a specific paragraph from the existing law related to medical cannabidiol registration cards and amends provisions concerning the information required for patient registration, specifically removing the requirement to list an "Iowa" residence address, implying that a general residence address will suffice. Furthermore, the bill alters the process for licensing medical cannabidiol dispensaries, changing it from a request for proposals to an application process and increasing the potential number of licensed dispensaries from five to up to ten, while also establishing an annual relicensing deadline of December 1st. Finally, it strikes an entire subsection related to dispensary licensing, suggesting a broader restructuring of those regulations.
