California is Getting Even Closer to Legalizing the Farming of Industrial Hemp!

Here is a letter I just received from Vote Hemp:


We are very happy to report that SB 676, the industrial hemp farming bill, passed out of the Assembly Committee on Agriculture on a 6 to 0 vote! We have been able to attend each of the hearings in the Senate and Assembly and do some lobbying, too. Your support for our work has paid off very nicely. Thank you!

Left to Right: Patrick Goggin, David Bronner,
Bob McFarland, Senator Mark Leno and David Piller

There is one more committee hearing yet to come and we are very optimistic that SB 676 will pass the full Assembly and go to the Governor's desk for his signature.

We have been able to do this thanks to your generous support, but we need your help to reach the finish line. Please like us on Facebook and share our posts with your friends and follow us on Twitter and retweet our posts.

You can also help us by forwarding this email to your friends and family so they can follow our progress and consider making a donation, too. Thank you in advance for all that you do for the cause.

Regards,

Eric Steenstra
President
