The California Cannabis Industry Association (CCIA), a trade group representing hundreds of companies participating in the United States’ largest regulated cannabis market, has released a white paper entitled “Pandora’s Box: The Dangers of a National, Unregulated, Hemp-Derived Intoxicating Cannabinoid Market.”
The document details the dangers associated with the growing number of increasingly intoxicating products currently being sold as “hemp” by manufacturers exploiting flaws in the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (the 2018 Farm Bill,) calling for urgent reform and proposing four actions to avoid a national public health crisis.
