Thanks to Mitch McConnell, you can now say goodbye to legal THC products like Delta 9 [View all]

MCCONNELL BURIED IT IN THE "RE-OPEN THE GOVERNMENT" BILL. TRUMP SIGNED IT, SO SAY GOODBYE TO LEGAL THC PRODUCTS.

What the spending bill would change

The 2018 Farm Bill created a loophole for intoxicating THC to be sold in low doses, Carol Moss, a cannabis attorney for Hellmuth & Johnson, told Axios this week.

The shutdown deal would ban those THC products and also non-intoxicating CBD products, Moss said.
What they're saying: "The bill, as it now stands, overrides the regulatory frameworks of several states, cancels the collective decisions of hemp consumers and destroys the livelihoods of hemp farmers," Paul said on Senate the floor prior to the Tuesday vote.

"It couldn't come at a worse time for America's farmers."
