Why CBD Is Banned in California?

"California Bans Full Spectrum CBD: What It Means and How We're Fighting Back" Justin Benton discusses the recent ban on Full Spectrum CBD in California, passed as an emergency law by Governor Gavin Newsom. He brings in Patrick Goggin, a prominent hemp attorney and advocate, to explain the details and implications of the ban. The law restricts the sale of hemp products containing any detectable levels of THC, making full-spectrum CBD effectively illegal in California, even though it was previously legalized under state and federal laws like AB 45 and the 2018 Farm Bill. Goggin explains that this law is driven by lobbying interests, particularly from Big Cannabis and potentially the FDA, aiming to monopolize THC products. The law affects not only hemp-derived products but also basic hemp goods like protein powder and seed oil, which have been deemed safe by the FDA. He highlights that a lawsuit has already been filed challenging the law, seeking a preliminary injunction to stop its enforcement. However, until the courts rule, the emergency regulations remain in effect. Benton and Goggin emphasize the significance of full-spectrum CBD, which contains the full entourage of cannabinoids and is crucial for many people's health and wellness. They also stress the moral obligation to fight back against this law, which they believe could harm millions of Californians, particularly families who rely on full-spectrum CBD for health reasons. Justin concludes the episode with a call to action for listeners to support legal efforts, including donating to the US Hemp Roundtable’s litigation fund, and participating in advocacy campaigns to reverse the ban and protect access to hemp products in California.
