Bipartisan CBD Product Safety and Standardization Act Introduced
On December 2, 2021, U.S. Representatives Kathleen Rice (NY-04), Morgan Griffith (VA-09), Angie Craig (MN-02), and Dan Crenshaw (TX-02) announced a bipartisan bill that aims to establish federal standards for CBD food and beverage products. The intent of the bill is to protect consumers and provide marketplace stability for farmers, producers, and retailers.
“CBD products are exploding in popularity, but the lack of federal regulation surrounding them has put consumers at risk and left businesses looking for clarity,” said Representative Rice. “The bipartisan CBD Product Safety and Standardization Act will establish the clear regulatory framework needed to provide stability for business and ensure unsafe products stay off the shelves. Thank you to my bipartisan colleagues for joining me in introducing this important legislation.”
