Oklahoma Reclassifies THC as Schedule I, New Marijuana Laws Take Effect
PN Team • 1 day ago
New Oklahoma laws taking effect reclassify THC as a Schedule I controlled substance under Senate Bill 1257, closing a loophole that let THC product trafficking be charged as a misdemeanor rather than a felony. Attorney General Gentner Drummond said the change aligns state law with federal classification of marijuana, without affecting patients or businesses licensed by the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority. Separately, House Bill 3127 lets employers act against medical marijuana patients in safety-sensitive jobs who test positive for THC, and House Bill 4454 imposes new edible labeling and packaging rules barring child-appealing designs, effective November 1.
