Critics argue that the new emergency restrictions proposed by Governor Gavin Newsom could effectively outlaw many popular hemp-derived products just as they're gaining mainstream popularity.
While acknowledging the necessity for regulation within the hemp industry, advocates believe that the zero-tolerance stance of the proposed rules is excessively stringent and risks stifling growth.
The regulations would prohibit any detectable amount of THC in hemp products and ban around 30 other cannabinoid compounds, a move that has significant implications for the market.
The push for new regulations comes after a previous bill aimed at regulating the hemp industry failed in the California Legislature, shining a light on the urgent need for oversight.
