Protect Legal Hemp in America
Millions of Americans rely on legal hemp products every day.
For sleep. For stress. For recovery. For everyday wellness.
But unless Congress acts, a federal law scheduled to take effect on November 12, 2026 could dramatically change access to many of the hemp products people depend on.
What’s happening?
Congress changed the federal definition of hemp as part of a government spending bill passed in late 2025.
If that change takes effect as written, many legal hemp products could no longer qualify under federal law.
The result?
Thousands of American farmers, manufacturers, retailers, and small businesses could be affected, along with the millions of consumers who rely on these products every day.
This is bigger than hemp.
The U.S. hemp industry supports more than 400,000 American jobs and generates billions of dollars in economic activity every year.
That includes:
- American hemp farmers
- Product manufacturers
- Independent testing laboratories
- Packaging companies
- Shipping and logistics providers
- Retailers and wellness stores
- Small businesses across the country
This isn’t just about one industry.
It’s about protecting American jobs, supporting small businesses, and preserving consumer choice.
There is a better solution.
Most responsible hemp businesses support stronger regulations.
We support:
✔ Age restrictions
✔ Mandatory third-party testing
✔ Child-resistant packaging
✔ Clear product labeling
✔ Manufacturing standards
✔ Strong consumer protections
What we don’t support is eliminating an entire industry that millions of Americans rely on.
You can help in less than a minute.
Congress is currently considering legislation that would protect hemp farmers while giving lawmakers time to implement sensible regulations instead of an unnecessary ban.
If enough people speak up, lawmakers will listen.
