The bill S.F. No. 2370 seeks to enhance the regulation and management of cannabis in Minnesota by establishing the Office of Cannabis Management, which will foster relationships with Tribal governments and oversee various aspects of cannabis regulation. Key provisions include new limits on delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in edible products, updated expungement processes for felony cannabis offenses, and the introduction of specific requirements for the sale and labeling of cannabinoid products. The bill also modifies existing laws to shift regulatory authority from the "commissioner" to the "office," ensuring a more structured framework for cannabis management that prioritizes public health and compliance.

Additionally, the bill introduces new definitions and licensing structures for lower-potency hemp edibles and establishes criteria for social equity applicants in the cannabis industry. It emphasizes the importance of compliance with safety standards, including packaging and labeling requirements, and outlines the responsibilities of cannabis businesses in reporting and operational practices. The legislation aims to create a supportive legal environment for cannabis patients, enhance consumer safety, and provide pathways for expungement of past cannabis-related offenses, ultimately streamlining the regulatory framework for cannabis and hemp businesses in Minnesota.
