How cute is this! |
As goes California, so goes the rest of the country, or something like that. This is extremely good news. Let's grow some hemp, y'all. The few hemp products I use (shelled hemp seeds, which are highly nutritious) are too expensive because they have to be imported and/or manufactured from Canada. I love hemp fabric, but I don't want to spend $65.00 on a skirt made from a weed. Not to mention everything else hemp is good for, including the environment. P.S. Have you noticed lately that Dr. Bronner's liquid soaps all have hemp in them now. A coincidence? I think not. Back in the day it was the law that farmers had to dedicate X number of acres for growing hemp, which was used for everything - rope, paper, clothing, medicine, fuel, etc. Not to mention that natural fibers have a purer frequency that synthetic fibers, which is better for your aura. We all need to get back to the land -- so that we can save it, and our astral body! -S.C-

In a bipartisan, unanimous decision, California’s Senate has approved
Senate Bill 566,
a measure to legalize hemp. The proposal now heads to the
state’s House, where its passage would put it to the governor for final
consideration.

“The California Industrial Hemp Farming Act will
create new jobs and economic opportunities for many farmers and
manufacturers across California,” stated Senator Mark Leno, the bill’s
prime sponsor, “Hundreds of consumer products containing hemp are made
in the Golden State, but the manufacturers of these goods are forced to
import hemp seed, oil, and fiber from growers in Canada, Europe, and
China.
The proposal – similar to a law that was approved earlier
this year in Kentucky – is designed to prepare California for the
inevitable end to hemp prohibition on the federal level, something
numerous federal lawmakers
are working towards, including the Republican leaders of both the House and Senate.
