Sen. Paul Responds to Kentucky Attorney General's Letter on Industrial Hemp
Statement
Issues: Agriculture and Food
In response to Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway's advisory letter on industrial hemp, Sen. Paul issued the following statement:
"Kentucky law provides for the production of industrial hemp in the Commonwealth and we are ready to move forward. The Obama Administration has weighed in on laws in other states and I would expect for Kentucky to be treated equally in this process. I support Agriculture Commissioner James Comer's efforts on this issue and I will continue to do all I can to secure this new industry for Kentucky."
