Bids stall to restrict high-THC products in Washington state

Efforts to cap the potency of cannabis products in Washington state and limit high-potency THC to the medical marijuana market appear to have failed.

Lawmakers in Washington state, one of the country’s oldest adult-use markets, introduced two bills this legislative session that would have imposed heavier restrictions on marijuana products with more than 35% THC:

House Bill 1642 would have restricted products stronger than 35% to the MMJ market. HB 1641 would have limited high-THC products to adult-use customers 25 or older. It would also have imposed higher taxes, created stricter rules on advertising and funded a public-health campaign warning users about adverse effects of high-potency marijuana.

Both bills appear stuck in committee with little chance of advancing, the Columbia Basin Herald reported.

A Washington state House committee heard both bills but took no further action.

Without another hearing, both bills are condemned
