Legislation aimed at unregulated cannabis products containing delta-8 THC could hurt people who use hemp-derived medicine for serious seizures.
You may have heard the extraordinary story of Charlotte Figi, the little Colorado girl who was dying from unrelenting, violent seizures until her parents decided to try cannabidiol, or CBD, a non-psychoactive ingredient of cannabis and hemp that helped other ailing children. CBD, it turned out, did for Charlotte what all the pharmaceuticals in the world could not: It saved her life. For nine years, until she died at 13 in 2020, Charlotte was virtually seizure-free.
” Legal cannabis dispensaries, whose owners have jumped through almost unthinkable bureaucratic and financial hoops, are understandably unhappy about a product that seems to both undercut their business and endanger the public. Assembly Majority Leader Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, a Yolo County Democrat, is the author of AB 2223, which would outlaw these “weed lite” products. The bill would ban any hemp products that contain more than 1 milligram of THC per container.
