Bill > H0700

This bill proposes to remove existing limits on the potency of cannabis products sold by licensed retailers, specifically eliminating the 30 percent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) cap for cannabis flower and the 60 percent THC cap for cannabis concentrates, with THC being the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis. Additionally, it would increase the maximum allowable THC per serving in a cannabis product from five milligrams to 10 milligrams, with exceptions for certain non-consumable products, solid concentrates, oils, tinctures, products sold to dispensaries, and products intended for inhalation. The bill also includes findings that current potency limits in Vermont are out of step with many other states where cannabis is legal, potentially driving consumers to the unregulated market or neighboring states, and aims to harmonize Vermont's regulations with a perceived national consensus to improve consumer safety.
