Introduction

In the intricate landscape of cannabis legality in the United States, understanding where Cannabidiol (CBD) falls in that categorization can be a significant undertaking. With a history as controversial as cannabis, and yet a potential as promising as any modern medicine, CBD legislation varies considerably from state to state. This article reviews the status of CBD legality in each region of the U.S., offering an in-depth perspective on this globally trending topic.

  • With no state outright illegalizing CBD, it is either 'Fully Legal' or 'Conditionally Legal' across the entire U.S. This mirrors the overall acceptance and growth of the CBD industry nationwide.
  • States that have fully legalized CBD include Connecticut, Montana, Colorado, Arizona, New Jersey, Oregon, Virginia, Alaska, New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, California, Illinois, Washington, Michigan, Maine, and Nevada.
  • The remaining states have 'Conditionally Legal' status for CBD, indicating specific regulations may accompany its usage such as THC levels or medical requirements. These include but are not limited to Pennsylvania, Alabama, West Virginia, Delaware, Kentucky amongst others. The THC content generally ranges from 0.0% to 0.6%, ensuring non-psychoactive properties of CBD products.
  • States such as Idaho that maintain stricter regulations regarding THC, might be seen as having 'Conditionally Legal' CBD, as CBD products are permissible only if they are derived from the mature stalks of the plant and contain zero THC. The exceptions and conditions vary state by state reflecting the complex and evolving nature of CBD legality.
