North Carolina Hemp Bill Sparks Industry Crisis | Wilmington News
Description
North Carolina lawmakers are poised to reshape the hemp industry with House Bill 328, which would cap THC at just 0.3% by dry weight — a move sparking fierce backlash from dispensary owners warning it could collapse the state’s burgeoning market. While supporters like Senator Michael Lee argue it aligns with federal standards and protects public safety, critics including Hemp Farmacy CEO Justin Hamilton say smarter, targeted regulations can achieve those goals without destroying the industry. The bill’s fate hangs in the balance as it heads to the House Rules Committee for a crucial vote this Thursday.
