Virginia Hemp Law Takes Effect | Richmond News

Virginia’s hemp industry is in turmoil as a new law set to go into effect Saturday night bans sales of hemp products with more than 2 milligrams of THC—shutting down most current offerings. Seven businesses challenged the law in court, seeking a temporary halt, but were denied by a judge, clearing the way for enforcement. Attorney General Jay Jones hailed the move as a public health win, aimed at protecting kids and closing a dangerous loophole, while clarifying that inventory won’t be seized—just regulated. The state is ready to defend the law as legal battles unfold, sending shockwaves through Virginia’s hemp market. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
