I like the bill number. 1866 is a year after the Civil War ended, and this bill is about states rights.

Statement Introducing HR 1866, Industrial Hemp Farming Act
April 2, 2009

Madam Speaker, I rise to introduce the Industrial Hemp Farming Act. The Industrial Hemp Farming Act requires the federal government to respect state laws allowing the growing of industrial hemp.

Does this legislation still have any legs?

How does John Boehner feel about hemp? He'll be in charge of bringing bills to the floor for a vote.

I doubt he does, since he's a Neo Con. We're probably going to have to take it back to the state level now.
