A Republican-controlled House subcommittee has voted to back a bill that makes most hemp-derived cannabinoid products, including edibles, illegal at the federal level.
On Thursday, the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies endorsed the 138-page bill in a 9-7 vote.
Newsweek contacted Republican Representative Andy Harris of Maryland, the subcommittee’s chair, for comment on Friday via email outside regular office hours.
