The Senate Judiciary Committee hearing covered, among other issues, the roll-out of adult weed sales, keeping medical marijuana affordable, and confusion over workplace rules.
The state agency tasked with regulating New Jersey’s new multi-billion dollar cannabis industry was on the hot seat Thursday before a key panel.
“I’m confident that if we did not start this process, the adult weed market would still not be open in New Jersey,” said Scutari, who sponsored the state’s medical and recreational cannabis laws and said after the March 24 meeting that “these delays are totally unacceptable.” Representatives for banking and cannabis trade groups also testified on the difficulty of participating in an industry that has been legalized on the state level but is still illegal on the federal level.
The New Jersey Business and Industry Association raised concerns over what it said was a lack of clarity over cannabis testing and rules on firing in the workplace. Five senators on the 12-member committee raised concerns over cannabis in the workplace and the CRC’s delay in having any standards to deal with it as outlined in the new law.
