AI Summary
This bill modifies Washington state's cannabis excise tax by changing how the tax is calculated, moving from a percentage of the selling price to a per-unit or per-milligram tax based on the type and quantity of cannabis product, including specific rates for usable cannabis, prerolls, cannabis trim, concentrates, solid and liquid edibles, and topicals. It also introduces new definitions for various cannabis product types like "cannabis edibles in liquid form," "cannabis edibles in solid form," "cannabis flower," and "preroll" to clarify tax application. Additionally, the bill adjusts the expiration dates for certain sections, with Section 1 expiring on June 30, 2027, and Section 2 taking effect on June 30, 2027, ensuring a transition in how these definitions and related provisions are applied.
