CV Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB:CVSI) (the “Company”, “CV Sciences”, “our”, “us” or “we”), a preeminent supplier and manufacturer of hemp cannabidiol (CBD) products, applauds the California Legislature of its passage of AB 45, which yesterday was signed into law by Governor Gavin Newson. This new law will explicitly permit the retail sale of products containing hemp-derived extracts and cannabinoids, such as CBD. 

“As a California-based company, we are very pleased with the enactment of AB 45, which we believe will lead to significant retail expansion of CV Sciences’ PlusCBD™ products in our home state, while also serving as a model for responsible CBD legalization for other states,” said Joseph Dowling, Chief Executive Officer of CV Sciences. “AB 45 will provide Californians with access to the health and wellness benefits of our safe and effective hemp-derived CBD. We look forward to working with our retail partners to rapidly expand our distribution footprint in California.”
