Ban hemp-derived intoxicants not for medical purposes.

What happened: A South Dakota bill that would have banned non-medical hemp-derived intoxicants failed in committee by a vote of 14–19 and has been placed on the calendar under the failed measures process.
Why it matters: The bill's failure leaves the hemp-derived intoxicant market intact in South Dakota, meaning retailers and manufacturers currently selling those products face no immediate prohibition.
Affects: retailers and cultivators
LATEST ACTION: Placed on calendar pursuant to JR 6F-6, Failed, YEAS 14, NAYS 19. S.J. 82
