On August 2nd, Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR), along with original cosponsors Senators Rand Paul (R-KY), Jeff Merkley (D-OR), and Bernie Sanders (I-VT), introduced S. 3501, the Senate companion bill to H.R. 1831, the Industrial Hemp Farming Act of 2011. We now have an amazing opportunity! This is an historic occasion as it is the first time a hemp bill has been introduced in the Senate in more than a half a century.
We need you to write and call your U.S. Senators today and ask them to become a cosponsor of Senator Wyden's bill S. 3501, or thank them if they are already a cosponsor.
