Chief Patron:
Emmett Hanger (R)

Session:
2023 Regular Session

Summary

As Enacted. Tetrahydrocannabinol; hemp products; packaging, labeling, and testing; penalties.

Limits the amount of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) that can be included in a hemp product or industrial hemp extract to 0.3 percent and two milligrams per package. The bill limits the application of such THC limits to retail sales and allows a hemp product or industrial hemp extract to contain more than two milligrams of THC if the product or extract contains an amount of cannabidiol (CBD) that is at least 25 times greater than the amount of THC; however, the bill prohibits hemp processors from selling industrial hemp or a substance containing an industrial hemp extract to a person if the processor knows or has reason to know that such person will use the industrial hemp or substance in a substance that violates the aforementioned THC limits.
