Voter Guide
- Vote Hemp asked the presidential candidates four questions
on industrial hemp. The results of that survey were
compiled into the Vote Hemp 2004 Voter Guide to help
voters make informed decisions. We did our best to educate
as many voters as possible before election day.
Legislation
- Vote Hemp has worked hard over the years to educate
legislators on the local, state and federal levels.
To date, twenty-eight states
have introduced hemp legislation and fifteen have passed
legislation; seven have legalized hemp production or
research. Also, for the first time since the U.S. government
outlawed hemp farming, a federal
bill has been introduced that would remove restrictions
on the cultivation of hemp. Learn about all legislation
related to hemp here.
