National Association of Attorneys General Letter to Congress
On Oct. 24, the National Association of Attorneys General released a letter to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees urging for the closure of the hemp loophole, created by a provision in the 2018 Farm Bill that has resulted in the proliferation of hemp-derived THC and other intoxicating products throughout the country. The letter, signed by 39 state and territorial attorneys general, advocates for closing the hemp loophole “to leave no doubt that these products are illegal and that their sale and manufacture are criminal acts.”
