What's In Scope
How Cannabis Legislation bills are selected
In scope is any bill regulating the cultivation, manufacture, testing, distribution, sale, possession or taxation of cannabis and cannabis products: adult-use and medical programmes, licence classes and the agency that issues them, excise rates and revenue allocation, social equity licensing and automatic expungement, intoxicating hemp and cannabinoid products, potency limits, packaging and labelling, impaired driving, workplace and tenancy protections for lawful use, and banking and insurance access for licensees.
Scope is defined by a written topic profile that every bill is measured against. The profiles are drafted by a model and validated by retrieval measurement against a judged set of bills, not reviewed by an attorney. LawSignals is a research tool and does not provide legal advice.
