Hemp (Executive Session)
This was a Senate executive session discussion of hemp, specifically the loophole that lets companies sell food and candy products containing intoxicating levels of THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. Senator Ricketts said children are being poisoned by look-alike products, noted Congress had voted to ban them starting November 12, and said a new spending bill delays that ban until December. He asked the Senate to vote on his amendment to remove the delay so the ban takes effect right away.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
