"Hemp a Hit on the Hill"

Congress got a taste of gourmet hemp foods when Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) introduced federal legislation, the Industrial Hemp Farming Act, to make it legal once again to grow industrial hemp in the U.S.A. As part of the festivities, Ralph Nader, the former presidential candidate and veteran consumer advocate, was on hand to support the legislation. Under the headline “Hemp a Hit on the Hill,” Capitol Hill’s Roll Call newspaper reported that Nader “pointed out that George Washington and Thomas Jefferson both grew hemp.” Roll Call quoted Congressman Ron Paul as telling the crowd gathered for the bill launching that “the Industrial Hemp Farming Act would be a step toward freedom.”
