Vote No on Hemp-Killing Language in CR or Minibus

Please VOTE NO on any proposed language to redefine hemp within CR or Minibus bills being brought to a vote. This would effectively be banning this uniquely American industry. A hemp ban will lead to the collapse of a growing U.S. industry, taking away consumer choices, killing jobs, and punishing farmers. Mitch McConnell and Andy Harris are slipping in language to kill the hemp industry, into a Minibus spending bill, when it HAS NO REASON TO BE THERE. The hemp industry has grown and is thriving despite a constant threat of bans, misinformation and confusion. Please support Rand Paul in his effort to preserve the hemp industry, as well as all the consumer who benefit from our wellness products. The future of the $28.4 Billion hemp industry –the farmers, veterans, small business owners, individual consumers, and the 328,000 employees - lies in the hands of Congress. Instead of legislation to ban hemp, please focus on responsible regulations that will keep American consumers safe: − Restrict the sale and possession of hemp products to adults over age 21 − Mandate manufacturing practices and independent third-party laboratory testing to ensure safety​ − Uniform labeling that empowers consumers to make informed choices − Packaging standards to eliminate “look-a-likes" that confuse adults and attract minors Thank you for standing up for hemp!
