Support The Hemp Farming Act
The Hemp Farming Act is gaining support in Congress thanks to your emails and calls! Hemp supporters have generated more than 8,000 letters and calls in just 2 weeks and we have picked up 12 new cosponsors. Last Friday we got the news that Minority Leader Schumer was joining the effort which is a real game changer. This week we gained support from Sen. Hoeven (R-ND), Sen. Hirono (D-HI), Sen. Tillis (R-NC) and Sen. Whitehouse (D-RI).
Please help keep up the pressure! We want to pick up 10 more cosponsors in the next 2 weeks leading up to our Hemp Lobby Day on June 7th. If you haven’t written a letter yet, please click below and do so. If you have, please write another one or consider calling to ask for your Senators and Representatives support for the Hemp Farming Act (S. 2667 and H.R. 5485).
