This is the bill Newsom vetoed: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB58 https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtm... The Legislative Counsel’s digest at the top is a very accessible summary of the bill. The meat of the summary being: (1) Existing law categorizes certain drugs and other substances as controlled substances and prohibits various actions related to those substances, including their manufacture, transportation, sale, possession, and ingestion. This bill would, on and after January 1, 2025, make lawful the possession, preparation, obtaining, or transportation of, specified quantities of psilocybin, psilocyn, dimethyltryptamine (DMT), and mescaline, for personal use, as defined, by and with persons 21 years of age or older. The bill would provide penalties for possession of these substances on school grounds, or possession by, or transferring to, persons under 21 years of age. The bill would require the California Health and Human Services Agency to convene a workgroup to study and make recommendations on the establishment of a framework governing the therapeutic use, including facilitated or supported use, of those substances. The bill would require that workgroup to send a report to the Legislature containing those recommendations on or before January 1, 2025. Given that last paragraph about HHS coming up with guidelines, I’m skeptical of his reasoning. The rest of the bill looks well written as it was probably created by the nonpartisan Legislative Counsel, an office of the legislature.
