—The United Food and Commercial Workers is backing a bill to legalize commercial hemp farming in a handful of California counties as part of an eight-year pilot project.
"UFCW enthusiastically supports SB 676 because we see it as a jobs and revenue generator at a time when they are sorely needed in California," Dan Rush, UFCW 5 Statewide Special Operations Director said. The state assembly is expected to vote on the bill in August. If the bill clears the assembly and the senate, it could reach the governor's desk by September.
