Did Congress just shut down the entire intoxicating hemp market? That’s the question circulating today after lawmakers officially moved ahead with a federal ban on all hemp-derived products containing any detectable THC. It’s one of the biggest policy shifts since the 2018 Farm Bill and it immediately reshapes the landscape for both hemp and cannabis operators.The TDR Cannabis in Five, presented by Dutchie, breaks down what this official ban covers, how broad the language truly is, and why it affects far more than just Delta-8 beverages. Products that were compliant under state rules — including gummies, tinctures, drinks, and even certain full-spectrum CBD items — now fall under this federal prohibition. States like Minnesota, Tennessee, and Kentucky spent years building regulatory systems, and those programs are now overridden at the federal level.This episode also outlines the industry pushback now underway from attorneys who argue that the ban goes far beyond addressing bad actors. Their warnings highlight potential impacts on farmers, manufacturers, retailers, and national consumer-goods companies that had begun investing into hemp-derived product lines. With Congress choosing a broad prohibition approach, the focus now shifts to how state agencies, regulators, and operators navigate the transition period.The final outcome will depend on implementation details, state-level responses, and any additional guidance that may follow. This development will also factor into upcoming federal discussions around cannabis, CBD, and long-term regulatory structure as policymakers reassess the line between hemp and marijuana.#CannabisNews #HempBan #THCBan #Congress #CannabisPolicy #HempIndustry #Delta8 #Dutchie #MitchMcConnell #CannabisIndustryWant to see more Cannabis Reform videos?   • Ted Cruz Shocks D.C. by Backing the Hemp I...     • How Kentucky Bourbon Killed Hemp | TDR Can...     • If Hemp Gets Banned… Then What? | TDR Cann...     • The Hemp Crackdown Begins Now | TDR Cannab...  Want to be updated on Cannabis, Small Cap, AI, and Crypto?
