GOP Lawmaker Circulates Bill To Keep Hemp THC Drinks Federally Legal
The Hemp-Derived Beverage Regulatory Clarity Act comes from Rep. Duyne (R-TX)
A Republican congresswoman is circulating draft legislation that would keep hemp THC beverages legal under federal law, creating a carve-out from the broad recriminalization of products derived from the crop that is set to take effect later this year, Marijuana Moment has learned.
The Hemp-Derived Beverage Regulatory Clarity Act from Rep. Beth Van Duyne (R-TX), in its current form, would allow adults over 21 to purchase and consume hemp THC drinks with up to 5 milligrams of delta-9 THC per serving.
It would also impose a federal tax of 10 cents per milligram of any hemp-derived cannabinoid contained within such beverages.
