Bill > SR427

This resolution creates a Senate Study Committee on Intoxicating Cannabinoids in Consumable Hemp Products to investigate the proliferation of potentially dangerous cannabinoid substances in hemp products. The committee will consist of five Senate members appointed by the Senate President, who will also designate a chairperson, and will be charged with studying the conditions, needs, issues, and problems related to intoxicating cannabinoids in hemp products. The committee is authorized to hold meetings as needed, with legislative members receiving standard allowances, and is required to file a report with findings and potential legislative recommendations by December 31, 2025. The resolution stems from concerns about various emerging cannabinoid compounds like delta-8-THC, THC-O, and HHC, which were not addressed in previous federal and state hemp legislation, and aims to understand the potential risks and appropriate regulatory approaches for these substances before implementing formal restrictions.
