As with all states they have their individual state law. Which they follow unless a federal law trumps it in which they always do.
For example, in California, it is legal to use medical weed. Operate a medical weed dispensory and grow weed for a medical weed dispensory with proper medical care giver issued card or state papers saying so...but weed is illegal in federally and thus the state wont worry you but the feds will...and now they have ordered all diapwnaories to close very soon....fed always trumps state. Unless ofcourse the state fights it.
