Summary

New Jerseys Senate committee advances a bill to significantly change how intoxicating hemp beverages are sold, allowing liquor stores to sell wine-sized bottles with up to 200mg of THC, a forty-fold increase from the current limit. This move comes amidst federal law changes, with critics raising concerns about public health, youth access, and potential impacts on tax revenue and impaired driving. Supporters argue its a necessary step to help licensed liquor retailers adapt to changing trends and inflation. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
