Marijuana possession penalties would apply above two ounces

Knowing possession or growing of more than two ounces of marijuana would be a misdemeanor under the listed rule, which also covers hash oil, hashish, and salvia. The marijuana rules cover knowing possession or growing of more than two ounces, and knowingly failing to destroy plants when more than two ounces are growing on a person's property. The listed possession offense also covers hash oil, hashish, and salvia. A higher misdemeanor may apply if the person has a prior drug conviction, or if the substance is packaged to look like low-THC hemp extract and the person knew or should have known what it was. A felony provision also appears, but its marijuana amount threshold is unclear in the printed text. The bill lists July 1, 2026, as its effective date if enacted.
