Tell Congress to Stop the Ban on Hemp!
Senator Rand Paul has warned that hemp could be banned in a matter of weeks.
This is not a drill. Powerful members of Congress are pushing language that would federally criminalize hemp products with any THC, effectively banning more than 95% of hemp consumable products on the market today. If they succeed, you could lose your favorite products and the entire U.S. hemp extract industry could be wiped out as early as this Thanksgiving.
But together, we can stop this.
The House has already passed a version of this ban. The Senate stripped it out (thanks to Senator Paul), but the fight isn’t over. A showdown is expected this fall as Congress negotiates a major “minibus” spending package.
We need EVERYONE to speak up now! Please pass this message along to your employees, customers, partners, and any other hemp supporters.
STEP 1: Use THIS LINK to email your Members of Congress and urge them to VOTE NO on hemp-killing language.
STEP 2: Spread the word! Here’s a social media package for you to use to post and share to alert others about this critical time.
We’ve also created a sticker/postcard that you can begin sharing everywhere and if you own a business, using on your products immediately. It’s a simple way to show solidarity and raise awareness.
