The Oregon Medical Marijuana Act, a law in Oregon, was established by Oregon Ballot Measure 67 in 1998. It modified state law to allow the possession, cultivation, and use of marijuana by doctor’s recommendation for patients with certain medical conditions. In 2014, State approved Measure 91, legalizing the sale, possession, and use of recreational cannabis. Measure 91 addresses regulatory issues in the marketplace, from curbing illegal marijuana sales to keeping marijuana accessible to those who need it. On November 3, 2020, the State enacted Oregon Measure 109 and Oregon Measure 110. Measure 109, the Psilocybin Services Act, allows people ages 21 and older to purchase, possess, and consume psilocybin mushrooms. They can do so at a psilocybin service center under the supervision of a psilocybin service facilitator. Measure 110, The Drug Decriminalization and Addiction Treatment Initiative, will help cut down the number of imprisoned people for possessing Schedule 1-4 drugs. The OLCC controls all licensing and regulation of the Oregon recreational marijuana market. On the other hand, the Oregon Health Authority oversees licensing and regulation of the OMMP (Oregon Medical Marijuana Program).

Registered medical marijuana patients can grow marijuana for themselves. According to Oregon medical marijuana, patients can grow up to 6 mature marijuana plants and 12 non-flowering plants on private property. Renters must check with their landlords, who retain the right to limit cannabis cultivation on their properties. Recreational users can cultivate up to 4 cannabis plants on private property. Patients growing medical marijuana must provide the OMMP (Oregon Medical Marijuana Program) with the name of the grower and grow site address.

Patients may designate caregivers to help them obtain, use, or cultivate cannabis. Patients younger than 18 must assign a caregiver, and their caregiver must be their parents or legal guardian. To qualify as a caregiver, you must be

• At least 21 years old.
• Oregon residents with valid state or federal identification.
• Free of any criminal charges related to substance abuse.

OMMP does not allow a patient to have more than one caregiver. However, the program did not specify how many patients a caregiver can manage. Designated growers can grow up to 6 mature marijuana plants, 12 immature plants 24 inches or more, and 36 immature plants below 24 inches in height for each patient under them.

Oregon does not offer reciprocity for out-of-state medical marijuana patients and does not recognize medical marijuana cards from other states. However, non-residents aged 21 and over can purchase cannabis from the adult-use market.
