POTENCY IN POT WILL BE REGULATED UNDER NEW MEDICAL CANNABIS LAW
Sam Quinones makes an impassioned plea for state regulation of legal
cannabis potency levels to safeguard children and to protect
responsible adult cannabis users in his story, "Regulate potency in
pot before legalizing it" ( Forum, Aug. 21 ).
I agree, and it is exactly why I, along with a bipartisan coalition
of legislators, authored the Medical Cannabis Regulation and Safety
Act, which was signed by Gov. Jerry Brown last year and provides
California's first comprehensive regulations for medical cannabis to
protect patients, promote public safety and preserve the environment.
Under this legislation, California regulators, including the new
Bureau of Medical Cannabis Regulation and the Department of Public
Health, will require full disclosure of medical cannabis potency and
have the authority to impose scientifically appropriate limits on the
potency levels of medical cannabis and medical cannabis products.
