‘Complicated’ hemp law in Colorado has supporters and critics
By Josh Long, Natural Products Insider
In April 2022, amid soaring sales of delta-8 THC across the United States, Colorado legislators sponsored a bill to address intoxicating products.
The bill defined an industrial hemp product, in part, as a cosmetic, dietary supplement, food, food additive or herb that contained no more than 2 milligrams THC per serving and 20 mg per container for food (including a beverage, food additive, herb or dietary supplement).
Had the initial bill passed, SB 22-205 would “have wiped out the entire hemp industry in the state of Colorado,” declared Jared Stanley, co-founder and COO of Charlotte’s Web.
