The sponsor's argument

Why Michelle Hinchey says this is needed

Chapter 669 of 2024 established cannabis showcase events, the Office of Cannabis Management subsequently established rules and regulation to govern the events. This legislation is needed to clarify both the law's intent and the regulations surrounding microbusiness participation in these events. Under the Cannabis Law, nicrobusiness licensees are only authorized to sell their own products. The proposed changes in this bill would author- ize a microbusiness to participate as both the cultivator (and if appli- cable a processor), and a retailer for a cannabis showcase events. This mirrors a microbusiness's authorization under the Cannabis Law, which allows them to cultivate, process, distribute. and conduct retail sales if authorized by the Cannabis Control Board on their license. Allowing microbusinesses the opportunity to participate in all aspects of the cannabis showcase event will help small farmers compete and give them a new opportunity to sell cannabis products at approved events.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
