Arizona AG told stores to stop selling THC-infused products. Hemp industry says regulation is best

The Hemp Industry Trade Association (HITA) Executive Director Sully Sullivan joined NPR’s Mark Brodie to discuss the urgent need for hemp regulation in Arizona. With the Attorney General’s recent announcement, thousands of jobs, small businesses, and rural farmers face uncertainty—despite the fact that hemp is federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill.

During the interview, Sully highlighted how clear, responsible regulations would provide the necessary framework to protect consumers, businesses, and the state’s economy—without conflicting with federal law or interstate commerce protections.

At HITA, we’re calling on Arizona lawmakers to pass sensible hemp regulations this year to bring clarity to the industry and prevent unnecessary enforcement actions.

🚀 The potential? A $1B hemp market, over 10,000 jobs, and millions in tax revenue for Arizona.

Stay informed. Get involved. Let’s build a sustainable hemp industry together.
