We the people ask the federal government to Call on Congress to act on an issue:

Legalize Industrial Hemp

Created by K.L. on August 31, 2016

Industrial Hemp is a plant that is not marijuana but one that can be used for thousands of purposes from building materials to textiles. It was traditionally grown in Virginia and the VA legislature has passed a bill allowing hemp to be grown in VA. In order for it to be grown and sold by farmers the bill has to pass in the Senate and House of Congress. Please push your legislator to legalize industrial hemp and no longer classify it as a class 1 schedule 1 drug. Hemp could save the Virginia economy and help the environment as a better and more sustainable option in so many industries. Please legalize industrial hemp to help save our economy. You cannot get high when you smoke industrial hemp!! S 134: Industrial Hemp Farming Act of 2015
