If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Representative Ron Paul introduced and sponsors H.R.1009: Industrial Hemp Farming Act of 2007 during the current 110th Congress. He sponsored a similar bill, Industrial Hemp Farming Act of 2005, during the 109th Congress.
Thank you Representative Ron Paul.
The purpose of the bill is to amend the Controlled Substances Act to exclude industrial hemp from the definition of marihuana, and for other purposes.
The Industrial Hemp Farming Act of 2007 has acquired 11 cosponsors:
Rep Baldwin, Tammy
Rep Frank, Barney
Rep Grijalva, Raul M.
Rep Hinchey, Maurice D.
Rep Kucinich, Dennis J.
Rep McDermott, Jim
Rep Miller, George
Rep Rohrabacher, Dana
Rep Schakowsky, Janice D.
Rep Stark, Fortney Pete
Rep Woolsey, Lynn C.
If you agree that it’s time to take back America, then now is the time to contact your Representatives and let them know. If they already support the Industrial Hemp Farming Act, let them know you appreciate it.
If they do not already support the Industrial Hemp Farming Act, please make every effort to let them know how disappointed you are in their representation of you and your interests.
Take back America.
Nayer has stepped up with this video using Amy Nelson’s and Rattlesnake Annie’s soundtrack of A Peaceful Solution to indicate a peaceful solution to this particular aspect of the War on Drugs that has divided families and communities all across the United States. Further, it has put many loyal and patriotic citizens at odds with all levels of government.
The ineffective and hypocritical War on Drugs now serves to divide the states and to put the states at odds with the Federal Government.
It all goes to show that war only produces increasing division and does not serve unity. Seems to me that more and more people have become just plain sick and tired of divisiveness.
Unite for Peace.
Song possesses power and magic. In many indigenous peoples’ traditions song played a central role. If something did not turn out right the cause was often traced back to the correct songs not being sung.
Do not underestimate the power and magic of song.
J. Nayer Hardin, Sherwood Akuna and Richard M. Davis have produced three other videos to “A Peaceful Solution” soundtracks. We are honored to put them all up.
The first video gives us a peaceful solution by introducing us to the idea of the possibilities available with the most useful plant on the planet. The second video offers a peaceful solution for global warming by using hemp as biofuel. The third video shows many of the peaceful attributes of the hemp plant.
This helps to show how multifaceted both peace and hemp is. It seems that both the idea of peace and the uses of hemp expand indefinitely in all directions. To deny hemp is to deny peace.
The parallels between hemp and peace are remarkable.
To think that it is proper to outlaw a plant and attempt to eradicate it from the face of the earth is the definition of insanity. To outlaw a plant that has been and can again be a useful medicine is criminal.
Now with increasing focus upon energy and food shortages, there can be no justification for continuing this war on a plant that can solve so many problems.
I know that we issue many calls for action from this website. If you are not going to give over total control of your life to those who have little consideration for it then I could understand why a call to action would seem like a burden.
But for those who wish to live an authentic life exercising as much self-determination as God granted us then a call to action lends guidance.
Please accept this guidance.
Contact your national representatives and urge their support for The Industrial Hemp Farming Act of 2007.

We cannot continue to make part of nature, hemp, illegal and wonder why we have problems with the environment and our economy.
Please share your political and financial support with government folks who promote a pro hemp agenda, like the heroes featured in this video, and those who signed on after the bill’s introduction, Rep Dana Rohrabacher, [CA-46] - 3/15/2007 and Rep Janice D. Schakowsky,[IL-9] - 5/8/2007. They are opening the doors for a long line of constructive hemp products to be “Grown and Made In America,” restoring family farms, empowering small businesses, and putting green back into the American dollar.
The USA Hemp Museum, www.hempmuseum.org, under the direction of its founder and curator, Richard M. Davis, author of Hemp For Victory: A Global Warming Solution, has worked for decades to get the word out that hemp is key to our salvation.
Let us save ourselves now!
Happy Hemp

Glad to see the day when American famers can grow industrial hemp like Canadians and find natural solutions to an oil addiction.

i have been a healer all of my life and a farmer for most of it. i understand the importance and necessity of hemp and the fact that it is a gift from God makes it even more insane that hemp is not being utilized as it should. this is an economic and bureaucratic situation and more control from the US government. it is purely shameful that the egotism of man has stopped the growing and production of a substance that is a god given commodity to be used for the wellbeing of humanity itself. shame on the US government for allowing their fear to hinder free enterprise.
