AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Virginia Retail Rollout: Virginia’s recreational marijuana market is finally getting a legal path: licensed stores can sell to adults 21+ starting July 1, 2027, with regulators taking retail license applications in February and up to 350 stores expected. The law also doubles the legal possession limit to two ounces and keeps limited home-growing. THC Policy Pressure (Texas): Texas lawmakers are again weighing a THC crackdown after testimony that seized products often test higher than labels, with poison center calls for THC rising sharply. Hemp/THC Rules (North Carolina): North Carolina lawmakers advanced a bill aimed at tightening hemp-derived THC limits, including a cap tied to total THC per retail container. Enforcement & Courts (UK): Police charged a man after a cannabis and cocaine stash was found at a home near the University of East Anglia, while another case saw a teen charged after a machete incident at a Tesco before boarding a tram—cannabis was also seized. Smuggling Watch (Thailand): Thai customs arrested a Russian man at Phuket airport after finding 17kg of cannabis hidden in suitcases. Local Legal Fight (Pennsylvania): A lawsuit challenges a concealed-carry permit denial tied to a decades-old marijuana conviction, arguing it violates constitutional rights.
