Bill Summary · HB 5095

Overview: HB 5095, Industrial Hemp: administration; administration of industrial hemp program; modify, was introduced on March 13, 2025 and is currently in the bill reproduction stage as of October 7, 2025.

Purpose and Intent: The bill aims to modify the administration and oversight of the state's industrial hemp program, with the goal of streamlining regulations and promoting the growth and development of the industrial hemp industry.

Key Provisions:
- Repeals numerous sections of the existing industrial hemp law, including those related to licensing, testing, and enforcement
- Transfers primary administrative authority for the industrial hemp program from the Department of Agriculture to the Department of Commerce
- Reduces certain regulatory requirements and oversight measures for industrial hemp producers and processors

Affected Parties and Impacts: The bill will primarily impact industrial hemp growers, processors, and businesses, who may benefit from the reduced regulatory burden but may also face less oversight and consumer protections.

Procedural and Timeline Considerations: The bill is currently in the bill reproduction stage, and its next steps will depend on any further legislative action and the Governor's potential signature.
