Dear [Committee Member's Name],
As one of your constituents, I am writing to express my deep concerns about the current language in the proposed Farm Bill that threatens the future of the U.S. hemp industry. A provision introduced by Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL), without a roll call vote, seeks to federally ban all ingestible hemp products containing any quantifiable amount of THC.
This provision is problematic because approximately 90-95% of hemp products naturally contain trace amounts of THC, including the vast majority of non-intoxicating CBD products. This is an inherent characteristic of the hemp plant and its derivatives. Furthermore, the proposed redefinition of hemp within this provision would severely disrupt the hemp fiber and grain industries by imposing new compliance measurements that many producers cannot meet. This would result in the loss of essential markets for hemp farmers and limit consumer access to products they depend on for health and wellness.
While I support the regulation of hemp products to prevent intoxicating substances from reaching children, the current language in the Farm Bill overreaches. It poses an existential threat to the hemp industry, seemingly to benefit a few monopolistic marijuana companies by eliminating competition from hemp-derived products.
I urge you to support amendments to the Farm Bill that remove these harmful provisions. If these amendments fail, I strongly encourage you to oppose the Farm Bill on the House floor to protect the viability of the hemp industry and the many Americans who rely on its products.
Thank you for considering my concerns.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
Mary Miller
