Congress Is About to Cut You Off. Tell Them NO.
A rider buried in the 2026 federal appropriations bill — Section 781 — would ban more than 95% of hemp-derived products nationwide, including our THC Seltzers, Mixers, and Gummies you've come to love. Oasis is standing with our community to stop it before November 12.
Section 781 doesn't regulate hemp. It erases it.
Buried inside the 2026 federal appropriations bill is Section 781 — a rider that redefines "hemp" around a 0.4 milligram total-THC-per-container cap and a stricter 0.3% total-THC-by-dry-weight standard. Unless Congress steps in, it becomes law on November 12, 2026.
That threshold isn't a rounding error — it's a wipeout. A single 10mg Oasis Mixer already carries more THC than an entire case of hemp beverages would be allowed under Section 781. The U.S. Hemp Roundtable estimates this provision would eliminate roughly 95% of hemp products currently on shelves nationwide, putting more than 300,000 jobs and over a billion dollars in state tax revenue at risk.
This is a finished-goods problem, not a plant problem — and Washington is trying to solve it with a blanket ban instead of the real regulation our industry has been asking for. Tell your Senators and Representative to fix Section 781 before the clock runs out.
What Section 781 would actually cap
- Total THC per container — not per serving — making nearly every hemp drink, mixer, and gummy on the market federally unlawful overnight.
- A stricter 0.3% total-THC-by-dry-weight definition that sweeps in full-spectrum and Delta-9 products, not just synthetics.
- No carve-out for lab-tested, clearly labeled, 21+ products like Oasis.
- Takes effect November 12, 2026, unless Congress passes a delay or fix first.
This isn't just an industry problem.
The hemp industry wants real rules. Not a blanket ban.
Oasis already builds to a higher standard voluntarily. Section 781 should meet us there — not erase the category.
21+ Only
Federal age verification for hemp-derived THC products, enforced consistently nationwide.
Lab Testing
Mandatory third-party COAs so every product's potency and purity are verified, every batch.
Clear Labeling
Accurate per-serving THC disclosure so you know exactly what you're pouring.
A Real Deadline
Support the Hemp Planting Predictability Act's two-year delay so Congress can legislate, not ban by accident.
Two things you can do before November 12.
Congress needs to hear from the people who actually drink this stuff. A two-minute call or email adds up fast.
Contact Your Senators & Representative
Tell your members of Congress to support a delay or fix to Section 781 before the November 12 deadline. It takes two minutes, and it's the single biggest lever you can pull.
Use the U.S. Hemp Roundtable's action tool to look up and message your Senators and Representative directly, or search by name on congress.gov.
Spread the Word
Share this alert with your friends, your group chat, and anyone who'd miss their Oasis if it disappeared from shelves in four months.
We built Oasis so you could skip the hangover, not skip your rights. We're not going quiet while Washington bans the better option.
What you need to know about Section 781
What is Section 781?
A rider in the 2026 federal appropriations bill that redefines hemp with a 0.4mg total-THC-per-container cap and a 0.3% total-THC-by-dry-weight standard — sweeping in nearly every hemp drink and gummy on the market, Oasis included.
When does it take effect?
