Virginia Hemp Businesses Sue State Officials Over New THC Product Limits

Marijuana Moment
A coalition of Virginia hemp businesses are suing state officials in federal court over soon-to-be-enacted restrictions on the products they produce and sell.
By removing the CBD-THC ratio allowance, no hemp product with more than 2 milligrams of THC will remain legal.
Now, seven businesses—Northern Virginia Hemp and Agriculture, Redfern Hemp Co., District Hemp Botanicals, Pure Elkton Manufacturing, Cypress Hemp II, Wellness Warriors and Simply Hemp—have filed suit in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia in an attempt to stop the ban from taking effect.
That includes a new key spending bill unveiled by Senate Appropriations Committee leaders on Sunday that has provisions to delay the new prohibition on many, but not all, hemp THC products.
