The bill amends Section 420 of the Oklahoma medical marijuana law, introducing new regulations regarding the purchase limits for medical marijuana. Specifically, it allows individuals with a state-issued medical marijuana patient license to legally purchase no more than two and one-half (2.5) ounces or seventy and nine-tenths (70.9) grams of marijuana within a one-week period. Additionally, the bill clarifies possession limits, allowing for the possession of up to seventy-two (72) ounces of topical marijuana, while removing the previous provision that allowed for possession of marijuana in a residence.
The bill also outlines the establishment of the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority, which will oversee the application process for medical marijuana patient and caregiver licenses, dispensaries, growers, and processors. It mandates that the Authority make applications available online and sets specific fees for various types of licenses, including a biannual fee of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) for standard licenses and Twenty Dollars ($20.00) for individuals on Medicaid, Medicare, or SoonerCare. The bill is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
