Federal: total THC incl. THCA, 0.4 mg per container, converted delta-8
H.R. 6500 (signed Sep 2, 2026) provides that until Dec 11, 2026 the §781 amendments apply only to non-natural-cannabinoid products. So from Dec 11, 2026 the rest applies: hemp means total THC including THCA at 0.3% or less by dry weight; final products above 0.4 mg combined total THC per container are excluded; cannabinoids the plant can make but that were synthesized or manufactured outside it (commercial delta-8 converted from CBD) are excluded. DEA separately holds that chemically converted THCs are already Schedule I (91 FR 23913).
P.L. 119-103 (H.R. 6500), Div. B §2019 'Section 781 Extension'; P.L. 119-37 §781 · H.R. 6500 enrolled text = P.L. 119-103, approved Sep 2, 2026 (govinfo) · verified Oct 8, 2026

Federal funding bill expires
The Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2027 funds the government through Dec 11, 2026, the same day the rest of the hemp redefinition takes effect. The next spending bill is the most likely vehicle for any further change to the hemp dates; the OMB letter of Jun 24, 2026 asked Congress for 'at minimum, an extension' of §781's implementation.
Scheduled; may move — Dec 11 is also the continuing-resolution expiry and the OMB letter of Jun 24, 2026 asked Congress for 'at minimum, an extension'

Rhode Island: 0.4 mg per container limit enforced
Hemp products above 0.4 mg total THC per container must be removed from licensed facilities and websites before Dec 11, 2026 and may not be transferred to licensed cannabis retailers; a CCC licence is still required below 0.4 mg. The bulletin is 'subject to delays or further guidance from the federal government'.
