Tampa hemp businesses concerned about newly-proposed restrictions

Chillum Dispensary in Ybor City

Carlos Hermida has been selling hemp products out of Chillum Dispensary in Ybor City for the past five years. He said he got into the industry to help people – especially veterans – experiencing anxiety, insomnia and pain.

“They come to us because they can’t afford medical marijuana," Hermida said. "They can’t be part of that system, so they come to us. If we’re not here, they’re going to go to the black market. If these bills pass, a lot of my customers are going to become criminals overnight.”

Hermida is referring to a pair of bills filed in the Florida Senate and House of Representatives that would add more regulations on hemp.

Legal Florida Marijuana

Two Florida lawmakers have filed bills that would legalize recreational marijuana.

Allow those over 21 to purchase or possess of 2.5 ounces, and smoke 
it in private.

"People are going to be doing it anyway. They have for decades, centuries, and they will continue to," said Merri Newman ,who works at Chillum CBD Dispensary in Ybor City. HERE

Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, said that full legalization is a recipe for disaster.
