Lol we havent reopened yet! We will see if the House can pull it off tomorrow but I feel like it is much likelier to be on Thursday.

One of the issues that is facing not just hemp but medical marijuana is the inability to quickly detect if someone is under the influence of it. It isnt like alcohol where we have a breathalyzer that can catch it. There was a study from a state that looked into drivers who crashed and died and having THC in there system was shockingly in a large percentage of these fatal wrecks.

Marijuana legalization needs to happen but to do so we need the FDA to lower the schedule of marijuana. Since schedule 1 says there is no therapeutic or medical use it is hard for researchers to figure out ways to detect people under the influence of THC.

The Delta‑8 issue also closely links up to the issue of illegal Chinese vapes that blow up. These two go hand in hand with each other and so until the US addresses both issues we are going to go in a circle.
