U.S. lawmakers might address intoxicating hemp-derived cannabinoids in the new Farm Bill, which could adversely affect a budding industry.
Georgia is set to prohibit sales of hemp-derived cannabinoid products to anyone younger than 21, including goods containing CBD as well as intoxicating, synthetically derived cannabinoids such as delta-8 THC and delta-9 THC.
Congress must act to solve the nationwide “health and safety crisis” posed by the growing intoxicating hemp-derived cannabinoids industry, a bipartisan group of 20 state attorneys general wrote in a letter to the leaders of the House and Senate agriculture committees.
Intoxicating cannabis is being sold in accordance with state laws. But it’s not sold as marijuana – it’s labeled THCA, which is psychoactive when heated.
Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon recently signed into law Senate File 32, which ban the sale of hemp-derived THC products.
Arizona operators such as gas stations and smoke shops that are selling delta-8 and other hemp-derived THC products without marijuana business licenses are breaking the law, the state’s attorney general says.
Cannabis retailers in Minnesota selling product before the state officially launches legal adult-use marijuana sales risk getting a $1 million fine and jeopardizing their chances of getting MJ business licenses when they become available later.
