    The federal government made a mistake when they labeled hemp as a controlled substance, putting it on par with dangerous substances like heroin.http://www.recordonline.com/news/20180504/schumer-pushes-bill-to-allow-industrial-hemp-growing …

        In reality, industrial hemp is an oyster with a pearl of opportunities that could mean millions in economic revenue while also helping to support new local jobs, like NY's Sullivan, Orange and Ulster counties.

        Industrial Hemp can be used to make everything from paper, to clothing, to plastics which is why it so important we fix this outdated law as soon as possible. All good reasons why I'm cosponsoring tr bipartisan Hemp Farming Act of 2018.

        You are trying to bring out the youth vote in the mid-terms in hopes of more votes for Democrats. I hope your plan fails.

        Read up about industrial hemp. The USS Constitution used tons of hemp in its sails and rigging. It was a required farm crop at one time.https://www.forbes.com/sites/ashoka/2013/05/29/industrial-hemp-a-win-win-for-the-economy-and-the-environment/#49d5537c289b …

        This is not entirely a bad idea. Maybe Congress can actually work together to give this a good stable base that can be worked with?

        Maybe you could introduce a bill requiring that presidential appointments get an up or down vote within 90 days of nomination. You have plenty of time given your tweeting and writing bills like this hemp piece.

        It’s only a matter of time until we are able to start a new “hempire”. And if so, will we have to worry about it striking back? These are important questions.
