CBD in New York—Differences in State, City Regulation Leave Questions
The absence of clear federal guidance regarding food and beverages that contain cannabidiol (CBD) has led to a patchwork of state-level regulatory actions across the country. Without uniform guidelines, states have adopted varying and often conflicting approaches.
Some states, like Iowa, have restricted consumer access to CBD. Other states, like Oregon and Colorado, have adopted more permissive positions. Now, New York state has codified sweeping new standards regarding the manufacture and sale of CBD products.
The new law will help provide much needed clarity to the regulation of products containing CBD, but there are important gaps the statute has yet to fill.
