LEGISLATION
Since 2014 the National Hemp Association has been influencing legislation critical to the growth of industrial hemp in the US. Twelve years after we helped put hemp back on the map, we’re working with state and federal lawmakers every day to pass common sense policy that spurs market development and opens up access to funding.
Good Policy Helps Good Things Grow
When hemp succeeds, communities benefit.
Farmers gain new opportunities. Businesses create jobs. Manufacturers build products.
Researchers discover solutions. Consumers gain access to more sustainable choices.
The Goodness of Hemp Act supports the policies that help make that progress possible.
The Goodness of Hemp®
Why It Matters
The hemp industry is evolving. Federal policy must evolve with it.
The Goodness of Hemp is a proposed federal policy framework designed to help Congress develop practical, durable solutions for the future of hemp. It supports consumer protection, regulatory certainty, American agriculture, responsible innovation and long-term market growth.
Good policy creates certainty.
Certainty encourages investment.
Investment creates opportunity.
A Collaborative Approach
The framework is being shaped through ongoing conversations with farmers, manufacturers, researchers, businesses, advocates and policymakers.
The National Hemp Association is leading the policy and advocacy work supporting this effort.
