North Carolina legislators are trying to ban the use of many hemp products on school grounds.

The Senate has already ed a bill to allow medical marijuana, but House Speaker Tim Moore has refused to put the legislation up for a vote. The House does want to new regulations for products already on the market in North Carolina that contain THC.

CBD, hemp and other products that contain the active ingredient from marijuana are sold in North Carolina with few regulations. An effort in the state legislature aims to change that.

As state lawmakers consider new regulations for CBD and hemp products, House Majority Leader John Bell has become the president of a start-up company manufacturing those products.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg police on Tuesday released over 30 videos of the arrest last month of two people who claimed they were smoking THC-A, a legal, hemp-derived product with intoxicating effects similar to cannabis. All charges were dropped.

The Senate voted for a House measure that keeps lawful the production and sale of industrial hemp and products derived from hemp like CBD.
