CSAP Board Chairwoman Doctor Mina Hah delivered powerful testimony to the Assembly Business and Professions Committee this week on AB 2249 (Irwin) Cannabis: labels, packaging, and manufacturing. AB 2249 establishes a definition of “attractive to children” for purposes of prohibited advertising, marketing, packaging, and labeling of cannabis and cannabis products; requires the Department of Cannabis Control to produce a standardized rubric for determining whether cannabis products are attractive to children; and requires the DCC to establish a process for licensees to request a written determination of whether a proposed packaging or labeling of a cannabis product is attractive to children. The bill passed the committee and will next be heard by the Assembly Appropriations Committee. If you would like to view the testimony, you may do so by forwarding to 55:50 here.
