Greg breaks down why he and others advocated so strongly in 2025 to ban synthetic THC products from Hemp. He discusses a troubling new investigation reported by AL.com revealing that some hemp products like ones that were being sold in Alabama were found to contain dangerously high illegal levels of THC — along with mold, pesticides, and even a carcinogen from paint thinner.
What does this mean for consumers? How widespread is the problem? And what gaps in regulation may be allowing potentially dangerous products to remain on store shelves?
Greg walks through the findings of the report, discusses the public health and policy implications, and examines why this issue drew so much attention from lawmakers, parents, and advocacy groups across the state.
An important conversation about safety, accountability, and the future of hemp regulation in Alabama.
