The House Appropriations Subcommittee has officially advanced a Republican-backed spending bill that includes a controversial provision to ban most consumable cannabinoid products currently sold nationwide.

"Approved by the committee during a markup session, the legislation contains language that would redefine hemp under federal law, effectively outlawing any product with a "quantifiable" amount of THC or any cannabinoid that has, or is marketed to have, similar intoxicating effects. This would target a broad range of items, including Delta-8 THC, THC-O, and even smokable hemp flower.

The bill originated in the Subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies, and is now moving through the full appropriations process. If enacted, it would represent the most significant federal restriction on hemp since its legalization under the 2018 Farm Bill.
"

Representative Andy Harris (R-MD), who chairs the subcommittee, said in a press release that the bill would "close the hemp loophole that has resulted in the proliferation of unregulated intoxicating hemp products," aligning the measure with the policies of the Trump administration.

I sometimes wonder if there should be some sort of regulations on Hemp derived THC edibles. I have tried several different brands. Some are great, help me sleep when I am really banged up from jiujitsu. Others, not so great. I have found two different brands that claim to be the same thing but when I take them I get a crazy back ache. However it could be related the Serotonin Syndrome that I recently learned I most likely have.
