Following the passing of Bill H.4001, which conforms with the federal hemp legislation laid out by the Agriculture Improvement Act, hemp-derived delta-8 is lawful in Massachusetts and is not classed as a restricted drug. The use, possession, sale, distribution, procurement, and manufacturing of delta-8 produced from hemp plants are all allowed under state law thanks to this important statute. Following the Massachusetts ballot measure (Question 4) in 2016, marijuana and marijuana-derived delta-8 are also permitted for people aged 21 and above. One ounce of delta-8 produced from marijuana is authorized per user.
