Currently, federal and state laws prohibit the manufacture, delivery, and possession of psilocybin (psychoactive mushroom).

Grants OHA authority to implement, administer, and enforce program. Imposes twoyear development period before implementation of program. Establishes fund for program administration and governor-appointed advisory board that must initially include one measure sponsor; members are compensated. Imposes packaging, labeling, and dosage requirements. Requires sales tax for retail psilocybin. Preempts local laws inconsistent with program except “reasonable regulations” (defined). Exempts licensed/regulated activities from criminal penalties. Other provisions.
