Cannabis regulatory bill stalls in spring legislative session twill
Rep. La Shawn Ford, a Chicago Democrat and the bill's sponsor, told Capitol News Illinois last week that Senate Bill 1559 didn't pass in part due to disagreements around delta-8 THC, a synthetic psychoactive substance typically manufactured from hemp-derived CBD.
On the federal level, the substance's legal standing is murky. In response to a cannabis industry attorney's inquiry about the substance's legal status, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration issued a letter in February saying delta-8 should be considered an illegal controlled substance because it is synthetic.
"To allow those types of products to proliferate undermines the cannabis industry," Althoff said."It will have a devastating effect on any new license holder who was trying to establish themselves, either from a cultivation craft grow side or from opening up a dispensary." Ford argued that banning it while trying to decriminalize cannabis and reform the industry would be hypocritical.
