On November eleventh, a spending debate in Washington threatens a multi-billion dollar industry. A proposed bill, aimed at reopening the federal government, includes strict new regulations on THC levels in hemp products, potentially shutting down businesses and causing significant job losses. Mike Sims, owner of Crowntown Cannabis, warns of a slow march to a business crash if the bill passes, arguing its not true regulation but a form of prohibition. Meanwhile, Kevin Oliver, executive director of Phoenix Counseling, supports increased regulation to prevent long-term issues for those in the fourteen to sixteen age range. Sims urges people to contact their representatives to remove this language from the continuing resolution, calling it an industry killer.
