Bill Summary
AN ACT REVISING LAWS RELATED TO THE SALE OF HEMP PRODUCTS TO CONSUMERS; PROHIBITING THE SALE OF EDIBLE HEMP PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN THC TO CONSUMERS; PROVIDING A DEFINITION DEFINITIONS; AND PROVIDING AN IMMEDIATE EFFECTIVE DATE.”
AI Summary
This bill proposes to prohibit the sale of hemp products containing total delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) to consumers in Montana, unless the product is specifically authorized as a food or drug by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The legislation defines key terms such as "consumer" (an individual who takes possession of a hemp product and does not resell it), "hemp" (referencing an existing definition in state law), and "hemp product" (a product containing postharvest hemp intended for consumption, smoking, vaping, or other administration methods). The bill explicitly excludes synthetic cannabinoids from its definition of hemp and is intended to be integrated into Title 50, Chapter 31, Part 2 of Montana's legal code. The legislation will take effect immediately upon passage and approval, signaling the state's intent to regulate the sale of THC-containing hemp products to protect consumers and align with federal regulatory standards.
