Cannabis: appointees: prohibited activities.
- Expands conflict of interest rules for state cannabis regulators and appointees.
- Prohibits regulators from receiving profits from cannabis license applicants or permit holders.
- Bans regulators from having financial interests in cannabis equipment or insurance sales.
- Prevents regulators from soliciting donations or contributions from cannabis licensees.
Assembly Member Berman's proposed cannabis regulation amendment extends existing conflict-of-interest restrictions to gubernatorial appointees within the Department of Cannabis Control, matching limitations already in place for the department director and Cannabis Control Appeals Panel members.
The measure prohibits these appointees from receiving any commission or profit from cannabis license applicants or permit holders, maintaining financial interests in licensee insurance or equipment sales, and soliciting licensees for benefit tickets or donations. These provisions mirror current restrictions established under the Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act of 2016 and the Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act.
The Department of Cannabis Control would implement these expanded restrictions through existing administrative frameworks, with no additional state appropriations required. The measure builds upon California's cannabis regulatory structure by applying uniform ethical standards across key oversight positions.
