To be clear, this proposition would ban hemp-derived THC. Gas stations and head shops shouldn’t be selling unregulated products like that anyway. Most of them are probably unfit for consumption.
That said, as the article points out, this provision would have consequences beyond Delta-8 vape carts and the like. I think the correct approach is federal legalization.
That’s correct. This proposition closes the loophole used to sell hemp-derived THC products, but it does not impact anything statutorily defined as “marijuana”. That’s still federally illegal but permitted on a per-state basis
