According to a news story from Radio Iowa, dozens of stores, breweries and other Iowa merchants that sell products containing THC may face closure as the bill President Trump signed to end the federal government shutdown included an amendment to cap THC sales. That part of the law won’t take effect for a year, and merchants hope to sway Congress to change it before then. Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley says he would -not- consider reversing the restrictions. Grassley says the stores could switch out “hundreds or thousands of other products” and remain in business. At least one Iowa merchant strongly disagrees. Ashley Lambson, founder of The Happy Can in Urbandale, says new restrictions would “wipe out everything,” including ointments, gummies, chocolates, and beverages.
