HB5040

Summary

This Michigan bill, electronically reproduced on September 24, 2025, and tied to companion bills HB 5041, 5042, and 5043, would similarly create a new licensing and regulatory framework for industrial hemp processing, brokering, marketing, seed supply, and wholesale while repealing the 2014 law. A parallel legislative effort to restructure hemp licensing signals active legislative attention to hemp industry regulation in Michigan, which could affect compliance timelines for hemp businesses.
