Help Fight Overly Restrictive Requirements for Beverages and Hemp Products
HB 5150 would repeal the current law that allows tinctures to have 25mg of THC per container and would prohibit most beverages. Although some non-alcoholic beverages with THC could be sold, they must be sold in a dispensary, hybrid retail store, or package liquor store, must contain 12 fluid ounces, and could not be sold in more than a 4-pack. Moderate THC hemp products up to 5mg per container could be sold outside the dispensary system, but retail licenses would be limited to well-established CBD stores that have been in business for at least a year. These confusing restrictions will hurt the hemp products industry and reduce economic opportunities for hemp farmers and small businesses.
