AI Summary

This bill modifies Tennessee law regarding hemp-derived cannabinoid products, commonly known as HDCPs, by reducing the wholesale tax on these products from two cents to one cent per milligram, and it introduces provisions for the delivery of these products to consumers. Specifically, licensed retailers are now permitted to deliver HDCPs directly to consumers, and this delivery does not require a face-to-face purchase at the retailer's location, though age verification (21 years or older) and proper documentation of the delivery are mandated. Furthermore, the bill authorizes licensed delivery services, which primarily deliver food but meet certain criteria such as having at least 50% of their gross sales from food delivery, to also deliver sealed HDCPs. These delivery services and their drivers must be licensed, undergo background checks, and adhere to specific regulations, including delivery distance limitations and age requirements for drivers. The bill also defines what constitutes a "delivery service" for the purposes of these regulations and establishes licensing fees for such services.
