Bill Could Ban Delta 8 THC Products From Tennessee
HB1690 and HB1927 are the two bills on the table
There are two bills aiming to regulate Delta 8 THC in the state legislature, though one would ban the products from Tennessee.
Delta 8 is made from hemp. Some people use it to relieve pain or for other medical purposes but it also has psychoactive effects.
Though it’s similar to Delta 9 THC, the compound in marijuana that gets a person high, it’s federally legal.
It’s fairly easy to find Delta 8 products in Tennessee stores.
It’s typically available in smoke shops or CBD and Hemp stores.
As a relatively new product, there’s now an effort to regulate it.
“We believe that this can be handled, really in the rule making process. Instead of making arbitrary limits on the growers and the producers and the manufacturers,” said Kelley Hess, executive director with Tennessee Growers Coalition.
