## Summary

**Authorizes interstate and intrastate shipment and sale of cannabis by small cultivators and manufacturers in States where cannabis is lawful.** It would let those producers ship products to adults using the United States Postal Service or private carriers once cannabis is removed from federal scheduling and federal penalties for individual possession are eliminated. - Small growers and makers would be able to sell and ship directly to lawful adults across States. A "small manufacturer" is defined as under $5 million in annual revenue and cultivator limits are set by canopy size that vary by outdoor, greenhouse, and indoor methods. - Adults 21 and older could receive mailed shipments, and carriers would be barred from delivering to anyone under 21 and must verify age using an online service or by checking a valid, unexpired government ID, including tribal IDs. - In States where cannabis is illegal the Act would not override state bans except to allow interstate transit through that State to a lawful destination. In States where cannabis is legal the Act would preempt state laws that restrict shipment to adults, except for age limits.

- Who counts as a small cannabis producer: benefit, medium. The bill would set who counts as a small cannabis producer. A small manufacturer would have under $5,000,000 in yearly gross revenue from all cannabis products. A small cultivator would have at most 1 acre of mature flowering canopy outdoors, 22,000 sq ft in a greenhouse, or 5,000 sq ft indoors. Ou…
- Act starts only after federal descheduling: mixed, medium. The bill would not take effect right away. All parts would start only when cannabis is removed from federal drug schedules and federal criminal penalties end. Until then, producers, carriers, and states could not use these new shipping or size rules.
