Hemp based THC products ban bill fails to advance in Indiana House
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WSBT) — An Indiana bill aimed at banning hemp based THC products from being sold to people 21-years-old and younger in the state failed to advance in the House on Tuesday.
Senate Bill 250 would ban the sale, and prohibit their sale or advertisement within 1,000 feet of schools and playgrounds.
State Senator Aaron Freeman released a statement, saying in part:
BE THE FIRST TO COMMENT
The bill also closed the “Farm bill loophole” derived from the 2018 Farm Bill, which created legal gray area that companies have claimed allows them to sell high potency intoxicating THC products. I am disappointed the bill was not called down, as it is a common-sense approach to keeping harmful products out of our kids’ hands.
