There are some rumors floating around that somehow NHA had something to do with the technical amendment to the farm bill that exempts people with a felony drug conviction from being permit holders. For the record, that is fake news and we do NOT endorse this provision nor did we have anything to do with McConnell introducing it. The reason that it was added is because of Senator Grassley. He had grave concerns about the hemp language and was prepared to kill it. This is the compromise McConnell came up with to get Grassley on board. As chairman of Judiciary there was no choice but to get his approval as this language effects both the CSA and the DEA which the Farm Bill without Grassley's consent has no jurisdiction over.

Soon we will be releasing the contact information for the house and senate members that have been assigned to the conference committee for the Farm Bill. While do not want to see the hemp language fail over this issue we also encourage you to contact your legislators to make sure the hemp language stays in the bill and to push back against this technical amendment.
