Michigan

Michigan’s Cannabis Regulatory Agency has proposed new rules for CBD and industrial hemp products. The new rules would limit THC in industrial hemp products to no more than 1.75mg per serving and 10mg per package. Additionally, the proposed rule would not permit THC levels in industrial hemp products to exceed 1/15th of the amount of CBD that is in the industrial hemp product.   

 

These limits would effectively ban certain hemp products. A ban will reduce economic opportunities for hemp farmers and small businesses and take products away from consumers who have come to rely on them for their health and wellness. 

 

Rather than ban hemp-derived THC products, please ask legislators to consider a regulatory framework which models what many other states have chosen—stronger enforcement, licensing for manufacturers and sellers, independent testing of hemp products, adequate labeling which prohibits child-enticing images, and age restrictions for consumable hemp products. Rather than banning hemp THC products, these reasonable restrictions ensure that adult consumers have direct access to the products they need, while keeping intoxicating products out of the hands of children.
