NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — There's no doubt, Tennessee's House Majority Leader's mind is made up. "Right now, these products are completely unregulated. They're being sold throughout Tennessee," said Rep. William Lamberth, a Republican from Sumner County. "I would encourage adults to avoid these products."This is why, last year, Lamberth fought to completely ban Delta 8 products in Tennessee. But you can tell that effort was unsuccessful, if you even glance around Nashville and Middle Tennessee. Between pop-up stands on Lower Broadway to Delta 8-infused bars like Buds and Brews in Germantown, the industry isn't blowing smoke.
