 California Assembly Bill 390: Marijuana Control, Regulation, and
Education Act
This bill would remove marijuana and its derivatives from existing state
laws defining and regulating controlled substances. It would instead
legalize the possession, sale, cultivation, and other conduct relating to
marijuana and its derivatives by persons 21 years of age and older. The
bill calls for the state to set up a wholesale and retail marijuana sales
regulation program, including special fees to fund drug abuse prevention
programs, as specified, to commence after regulations concerning the
program have been issued, and federal law permits possession and sale
consistent with the program. It would ban local and state assistance in
enforcing inconsistent federal and other laws relating to marijuana, and
would provide specified infraction penalties for violations of these new
marijuana laws and regulations, as specified.
