GREENSBORO, N.C. — North Carolina lawmakers are considering bills that would make smokable hemp illegal under state law, earning support from some law enforcement and outcry from some hemp growers, sellers and consumers.
Last week, the bills continued to move through the state legislature. On July 17 House committees considered Senate Bill 315, the 2019 North Carolina Farm Act, and Senate Bill 352, which would amend the NC Controlled Substances Act.
Both bills would classify smoked hemp as marijuana under the law.
