Rep. Nancy Mace introduced a bill to REVERSE the hemp ban that would destroy 300,000 American jobs.

The American Hemp Protection Act could save a $28 billion industry from collapse.

This is our chance. 👇

Without a fix, the hemp edibles ban will close hundreds of small businesses across Minneapolis and cost thousands of jobs.

That's why I joined a coalition of Minnesota leaders and small businesses demanding action today. Without it, our local and regional economy will take a devastating blow.
