| Posture | D8/10 & other synthetic intoxicating cannabinoids & intoxicating hemp flower (incl high-THCA) prohibited (OCM/DOH Cannabinoid Hemp Program); intoxicating THCA = cannabis. Only low-dose hemp d9 beverages/edibles (~1mg/serv,10mg/pkg,15:1) allowed. |
| Risk | high |
| Next trigger | Federal cap 11/12; NY already bans most intoxicating hemp, would tighten low-dose allowance. |
