An Act expanding access to legal, regulated cannabis 	delivery.
Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to 
immediately remove unnecessary burdens from vulnerable social equity businesses before the 
end of the license exclusivity period, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, 
necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority 
of the same, as follows:
1 Section 4 of Chapter 94G of the General Laws is amended by inserting, at the end of the 
2section, the following subsection:-
3 (m) The commission shall not prohibit the delivery of cannabis by licensed delivery 
4operators or couriers to any municipality in the commonwealth nor to any establishment that 
5provides overnight lodging services to tourists and visitors, including but not limited to hotels, 
6motels, and resorts.
