MOBILE, Ala. With THC enforcement happening across the state, the mobile Police Department has announced that they too will be enforcing the law inside city limits.
A new state law now bans the sale and possession of all smokable hemp products, including synthetic forms of THC. The law, which has been in effect for two weeks, also limits the potency of gummies and THC drinks available for purchase.
Retailers are now required to obtain a proper license from the Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board and will face new enforcement measures. Starting January 1, 2026, consumable hemp products may only be sold to individuals aged 21 and older by licensed retailers in Alabama.
This is classified as a Class C felony, punishable by 1 to 10 years in prison and up to a $15,000 fine.
Prior to the law’s enactment on July 1, four hemp companies filed a lawsuit against the Alabama Governor, attempting to halt the new law. However, their efforts were unsuccessful in preventing the law from taking effect.
