ForwardCBD Political & Legal Landscape
Please note that this is the on-demand version of the webinar. The live webinar was recorded on March 25th, 2021.
Overview
Practically interwoven in the DNA of CBD is a long history of politics, negative bias, legislations, and regulations. Kick-starting this webinar in the 1930s, we will learn how a former USP pharmacopeial drug with 8,000+ years of documented medicinal use became publically slandered, vilified, and federally prohibited for use. From here we will map out all the political and legal milestones that shape the history of CBD – from the Controlled Substance Act in 1970, to the approval of synthetic THC drugs in the 1980s, to the 2018 approval of a synthetic CBD drug, and finally to the 2018 Farm Bill marking the biggest milestone, to date, in CBD legalization efforts.
This webinar will not only provide a compelling account of the CBD political history and the current US federal regulatory landscape, but will also dive into some State-specific laws and requirements that pharmacies need to adhere to when it comes to the sale of CBD – including specification on THC levels, license requirements, and more.
