Regulatory Overview
South Carolina has no operational medical or adult-use cannabis program. The Compassionate Care Act (S. 423) passed the Senate in 2024 but stalled in the House; similar proposals in the 2025–26 session were not enacted as of retrieval. The 2026 federal Schedule III rescheduling has prompted renewed legislative interest, but no program is operational.
