Description
Texas Hemp Industry Faces Legal Battle Over New Rules: The Texas Department of State Health Services has implemented a ban on selling smokable hemp-derived THC products and significantly increased manufacturer licensing fees, causing financial strain on smaller businesses. The rules, which took effect in late March, have led to a lawsuit from the Texas Hemp Business Council, arguing that the regulations violate state law and could result in job and revenue loss. A hearing for a temporary restraining order is scheduled for this Friday, with potential injunctions to pause enforcement. The legal battle is unfolding rapidly, as the economic impact is felt immediately.
