The bill has been updated to extend the validity of medical cannabis registration cards from 2 years to 6 years, making it easier for patients and caregivers to maintain their access without needing to renew as frequently. Additionally, if a patient no longer needs medical cannabis, they will now be required to notify their registered caregiver and return their card within 14 days. This change simplifies the process for patients and caregivers, which could improve access to necessary medical treatments. The bill also introduces a "4/20 Medical Cannabis Sales Tax Holiday Week" for 2024, encouraging more use of medical cannabis during that time.
