GOOD NEWS FROM CALIFORNIA: Yesterday, the California Assembly’s Appropriations Committee UNANIMOUSLY passed AB 228, which would expressly permit the retail sale of hemp-derived CBD in foods and supplements, and also in topical applications. As you probably remember, last year, the California Department of Public Health issued guidance, inaccurately alleging that hemp-derived CBD is prohibited by law to be sold in retail stores in the state. The passage of AB 228 would redress the pronouncement which has cast a chill on legal commerce in popular products that promote health and wellness among California citizens, making clear that hemp and hemp-products are legal for retail sale. It is now onto the House floor, and we are pushing for a 2/3 vote to ensure its urgent application. If you live in California, please use our State Action Center today – urge your legislators to support AB 228. If not, please share with your friends and colleagues that do!
