Local jurisdictions could give the green light to permit certain cannabis retailers to prepare and sell drinks and food that do not contain cannabis. This new law will allow cannabis retailers to diversify their business and move away from the struggling and limited dispensary model, according to Assemblymember Matt Haney. In contrast to past concerns that led to a vetoed similar legislation, this bill was designed with additional health provisions to mitigate risks such as requiring ventilation and filtration.
Minors who make money by producing online content are set to receive increased protections through newly signed legislation that expands the Coogan Act.

The measure reflects a growing recognition of the risks faced by child content creators in the digital landscape, providing them with more financial security.
