This bill amends sections of the Nebraska Medical Cannabis Patient Protection Act and the Nebraska Medical Cannabis Regulation Act to correct an incorrect subdivision reference and to clarify definitions related to cannabis. Specifically, it updates the definition of cannabis to include all parts of the cannabis plant while explicitly excluding hemp as defined in section 2-503. The bill also clarifies the allowable amount of cannabis for patients and the roles of caregivers and health care practitioners in the medical cannabis framework.

Additionally, the bill repeals the original sections of the Initiative Laws 2024, No. 437 and No. 438, and declares an emergency, allowing the act to take effect immediately upon passage and approval. This legislative action aims to streamline and clarify the legal framework surrounding medical cannabis in Nebraska, ensuring that patients and providers have a clear understanding of the regulations governing its use.
