IN RE:
HB3948 by King, Tracy O. (Relating to the production and regulation of hemp and consumable hemp products; authorizing a fee.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted

The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would amend various codes as they relate to the production and regulation of hemp and consumable hemp products. Under the provisions of the bill, licensing, production, and regulation requirements for hemp and consumable hemp products would be amended.

This analysis assumes implementing the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact on the demand for state correctional resources. The bill does not expressly create a felony offense, increase the punishment for an existing misdemeanor to that of a felony, increase the punishment for an existing felony offense or category of felony level offenses, or change the eligibility of a person for felony community supervision, parole, or mandatory supervision.
