Associations Express Concern with Constraints on Industrial Hemp Research

Letter to House and Senate leadership expressing concern that, despite some recent changes to federal law intended to facilitate legitimate research on industrial hemp (the plant genus Cannabis sativa L including all derivatives, extracts, and seeds of hemp as long as those portions of the plant remain below the 0.3 % THC threshold), significant legal, regulatory, and procedural impediments remain that prevent or make it difficult for researchers to contribute to public knowledge in this area.
