Senate Bill 56 (SB56) has already passed the Senate and is now on its way to the Governor’s desk. While the bill claims to “streamline” marijuana regulation, it introduces sweeping restrictions that could damage hemp businesses, limit consumer choice, and reduce personal freedoms.
If signed into law, SB56 will cut home cultivation rights in half — dropping the limit from 12 plants to just 6 — and ban adults from sharing cannabis altogether. It also merges medical and recreational programs under stricter state control, bans all forms of public consumption, and hands greater regulatory power to the state, creating costly compliance burdens for both hemp and cannabis businesses.
This bill threatens to roll back progress and hurt both patients and responsible consumers. It’s time to make our voices heard before it’s too late. Call your representatives, spread the word, and urge the Governor to veto SB56.
Protect choice. Protect small businesses. Oppose SB56.
