Removes barriers for cannabis industry investment and operations in Washington.

The bill removes residency requirements for cannabis industry investors, allowing out-of-state investment in Washington's cannabis businesses. It also suspends inactive cannabis producer licenses until a federal marketplace emerges to address oversupply issues. The bill aims to create a level playing field, support smaller businesses, and ensure a stable cannabis market. It maintains strict transparency requirements for investors and preserves high regulatory standards.
