According to a report by Arcamax on May 29th, legislators in the state of Illinois in the United States failed to take action to prevent dangerous marijuana products from falling into the hands of children. Governor J.B. Pritzker has called for stronger industry regulation.
This bill received bipartisan support and passed the Senate, but disagreements within the marijuana business industry once again stalled the bill as the legislative session ended on Wednesday, the 29th.
The governor of the state is calling for regulation of marijuana products.
I believe that this unregulated product has already caused some health issues and should be regulated by the state government.
Many unlicensed marijuana growers and retailers have expressed that the measure will lead to bankruptcy for numerous businesses. They are calling for regulations targeting individuals over 21 years old, as well as packaging and labeling standards, but have not reached a consensus.
Controversy has arisen in licensed marijuana businesses over a new sweeping "comprehensive" bill that allows all chain stores to sell marijuana to medical patients without charging a retail tax. As a result, medical patients are still only able to receive discounts at the original 55 medical chain stores in the state.
The Illinois Cannabis Business Association supports cracking down on illegal cannabis operations and expanding the coverage of medical cannabis.
We are deeply disappointed that the House of Representatives did not pass the necessary reforms to our state's marijuana laws, and will continue to allow synthetic marijuana products to be sold without regulation, which can make both children and adults sick. Despite overwhelming bipartisan support for these measures in the Senate, it is clear that there is still more work to be done in educating legislators on these important issues.
