CDA Releases Updated Guide to Federal and State Laws Governing Hemp and Hemp-Derived Products

HempCover With laws and policies constantly changing, CDA is pleased to share an updated Guide to Federal and State Laws Governing Hemp and Hemp-Derived Products. This updated guide also includes information related to Delta 8/9/10 THC. We hope this resource serves as a valuable guide for CDA members.

This memorandum, prepared by Lange Kim & Dowell LLP for CDA members, addresses hemp-derived products only. CBD and other cannabinoids may be derived from marijuana. While many states have legalized marijuana recreationally and/or for medical purposes, it is important to note that marijuana remains illegal as a matter of federal law, and that possession, distribution or sale of marijuana constitutes a federal crime. The most up-to-date information should be obtained from the reader’s state regulatory agency and local counsel. The guide is intended to serve as a resource and is not intended to constitute specific legal advice. Businesses should consult local counsel in their state regarding any specific legal questions.
