Iowa Senate Passes Bill Regulating Hemp Products and THC Limits

Iowa lawmakers have passed a bill imposing stricter regulations on consumable hemp products, including a 4mg THC limit per serving and a 21-year-old age threshold for purchase, which now awaits Gov. Kim Reynolds' signature. The bill also increases penalties for violating hemp laws, prohibits synthetic THC, and requires warning labels on consumable THC products. Supporters argue it's necessary for industry and consumer safety, while opponents fear it will hinder local businesses and access to medical THC products in Iowa.
