DELAWARE- Governor Matt Meyer signed HB110 into law Thursday, amending requirements for fingerprint-based background checks for Delawareans who wish to work in, own, or help run a licensed marijuana business. House Bill 110 updates procedures to meet federal requirements and gain access to national FBI background information. The law also updates other parts of Delaware’s licensing rules to make sure background checks are handled clearly and fairly when deciding who can get a cannabis license.
“Delaware’s recreational cannabis industry is going to create good-paying jobs and provide critical revenue for the state to help pay for schools, housing, and healthcare. House Bill 110 will strengthen our background check requirements, align our practices with federal standards, and safeguard public trust,” said Governor Matt Meyer. “I want to thank Majority Whip Osienski for his swift leadership in addressing this issue through legislation. As we implement these measures, we’ll keep pressing the federal government to end the bureaucracy standing in the way of getting this industry launched quickly and with integrity.”
