Senator Rabon Is Delaying Safe Access to Hemp-Derived Products—It’s Time to Act

North Carolina families are being left behind as Senate leadership stalls legislation that would ensure the safe, legal access to hemp-derived consumable products. At the center of this delay is Senator Bill Rabon, who has continued to block movement on SB265 – the Protecting Our Communities Act.

This crucial bill was designed to create a legal framework for regulating hemp-derived consumables like CBD, Delta-8, and other cannabinoids—products that are already widely available and in demand across the state. Without clear regulation, consumers, especially children and vulnerable individuals, remain at risk from untested or unsafe products in the market.

Why This Matters

Hemp-derived products are not going away. The longer North Carolina waits to implement common-sense regulations, the longer our communities remain vulnerable. SB265 offers a path forward—ensuring that only compliant, tested, and properly labeled hemp products reach consumers.

Yet, instead of prioritizing the safety of North Carolinians, Senator Rabon is holding the bill hostage.

The longer he delays, the more our communities are put at risk.
