It’s shameful that Congress would slip a job-killing ban into a must-pass CR to reopen the government—shutting down thousands of hemp businesses, devastating a $28 billion industry, and eliminating over 300,000 jobs.
This isn’t the clean CR Americans were promised.

I submitted 2 amendments to the CR/minibus to fix onerous provisions in it. The rules committee allowed neither to get a vote. One amdt mirrored @SenRandPaul’s effort to remove the hemp ban that will devastate the industry. The other would reinstate Congressional budget rules.
