JUSTIFICATION: Present law fails to prevent the trade and consumption of marihuana and has continued to foster a violent drug market that consumes millions of dollars in resources every year. New York State Ranks 2nd of all 50 states in terms of Marihuana related arrests made per 100,000 people. In 2010, the NYPD made 50,300 marihuana related arrests. This number amounted to one out of every seven total arrests made, and $75 million was spent arresting and jailing mostly young people simply for possessing small amounts of marihuana. The enforcement of present law has disproportionately effected African- American and Latino communities; often giving first time, non-violent offenders, an extraneous criminal record. Government health surveys find that young whites use marihuana at higher rates than young blacks and Latinos. But the NYPD arrests blacks for marihuana possession at seven times the rate of whites and Latinos at nearly four times the rate of whites. Aside from mitigating these issues, the regulation and taxation act will also help accrue revenue for the state; portions of which will go back (through government agencies and programs) to communities that have been impacted by present law. PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: New Bill FISCAL IMPLICATIONS FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS: Increase revenue for state and local governments. Fiscal implication assumptions for similar legislation implemented in Colorado, Amendment 64, estimated an annual revenue increase of 5-22 million dollars and an annual spending increase of .5-1.5 million dollars. Given the larger population of New York State this legislation should generate revenue substantially larger than these estimates. EFFECTIVE DATE: Immediately.

KRUEGER -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Rules AN ACT to amend the public health law, in relation to the description of marihuana, and the growing of and use of marihuana by persons eighteen years of age or older; to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to making technical changes regarding the definition of mari- huana; to amend the penal law, in relation to the qualification of certain offenses involving marihuana and to exempt certain persons from prosecution for the use, consumption, display, production or distribution of marihuana; to amend the alcoholic beverage control law, in relation to providing for the licensure of persons authorized to produce, process and sell marihuana; to amend the tax law, in relation to providing for the levying of an excise tax on certain sales of marihuana; to amend the criminal procedure law, the civil practice law and rules, the general business law, the state finance law, the executive law, the penal law and the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to making conforming changes; to repeal sections 221.10, 221.25, 221.30, 221.50 and 221.55 of the penal law relating to the criminal possession and sale of marihuana; and to repeal paragraph (f) of subdivision 2 of section 850 of the general business law relating to drug related paraphernalia THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. This act shall be known and may be cited as the "marihuana regulation and taxation act". S 2. Legislative findings and intent. The legislature finds that decades of arresting marihuana users has failed to prevent marihuana use or prevent minors from accessing marihuana. Existing marihuana laws have created a violent, illegal drug market that consumes millions of dollars in criminal justice resources each year. Existing marihuana laws have also disproportionately impacted African-American and Latino communi- EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted. LBD10865-05-3
S. 6005 2 ties. Regulating, controlling, and taxing marihuana like alcohol will save criminal justice resources, reduce violent crime, reduce racial disparities, and generate revenue. Additionally, industrial hemp is produced in at least 30 nations and used to create thousands of products including paper, textiles, food oils, automotive parts, and personal care products. Hundreds of millions of dollars of industrial hemp products are sold in the United States each year. The intent of this act is to regulate, control, and tax marihuana in a manner similar to alcohol, generate millions of dollars in new revenue, prevent access to marihuana by those under the age of eighteen years, reduce the illegal drug market and reduce violent crime, reduce the racially disparate impact of existing marihuana laws, allow industrial hemp to be farmed in New York state, and create new industries and increase employment. Nothing in this act is intended to limit the authority of employers to enact and enforce policies pertaining to marihuana in the workplace, to allow driving under the influence of marihuana, to allow individuals to engage in conduct that endangers others, to allow smoking marihuana in any location where smoking tobacco is prohibited, or to require any individual to engage in any conduct that violates federal law or to exempt anyone from any requirement of federal law or pose any obstacle to the federal enforcement of federal law.
