Cannabis-beverage bill clears House committee

News Releases are provided by the LRC Public Information Office. All photos are attributed to LRC Staff. Cannabis-beverage bill clears House committee March 12, 2025 Sen. Julie Raque Adams, R-Louisville, explains the updated version of Senate Bill 202 to the House Licensing, Occupations and Administrative Regulations Committee on Wednesday.

The state Cabinet for Health and Family Services would continue to regulate the manufacturing and testing of the products, she added. For retailers that currently have products on the shelves at more than 5 milligrams, Adams said they would... Continue Reading
