Relating to the creation of the consumable hemp products account in the general revenue fund and imposing fees for licensing manufacturers of consumable hemp products and registering certain retailers of consumable hemp products.

SB 2142 creates a dedicated "consumable hemp products account" in Texas' general revenue fund to manage fees and penalties related to hemp products. It requires hemp manufacturers to pay a $10,000 initial license fee and $10,000 annual renewal fee per location, while retailers selling consumable hemp products (like CBD edibles) must pay a $20,000 annual registration fee per location. The account will also collect penalties for regulatory violations and accept other funds like grants, but all money must be used solely by the state department to enforce hemp product regulations. This bill directly affects businesses manufacturing or selling consumable hemp products in Texas.
