Bill Would Ban Intoxicating Hemp, Make Changes To Ohio’s Marijuana Law

(ONN) – Changes are ahead for hemp and marijuana laws in Ohio.

The State Senate passed a bill that would restrict most hemp sales in Ohio.

It would also roll back some of the freedoms afforded to recreational marijuana.

If signed into law by Governor DeWine, Senate Bill 56 would ban intoxicating hemp products from being sold in convenience stores, smoke shops, and gas stations.

The bill would also reduce the maximum THC allowed in extracts and in the actual flower as well as tighten public smoking rules.
