IT'S TIME FOR HEMP PROHIBITION TO END

A GLOBAL CANNABIS SUMMIT
THE WHOLE WORLD CAN ATTEND!

Each Friday this month,'Time 4 Hemp - LIVE' is hosting 2-hour specials to produce a 10-hour Global Cannabis Summit with some of the most brilliant minds and amazing leaders of the Industrial Hemp and Medical Cannabis Movement. This presentation is being broadcast http://www.AmericanFreedomRadio.com as well as on AM/FM stations across America and the ROKU Broadcasting Network at 9-11a.m. (PST) then made available for free download from the Time4Hemp.com TODAY-Blogsite and on iTunes.

The Cannabis Legalization Movement has long wanted
to have Congressional or Senate Hearings
as well as the chance to meet with world leaders to present:

• 1.) the rational thinking and hard data that verify PROHIBITION as a failed policy which ruin personal lives as well as the future of the following generations;
• 2.) the most significant scientific studies pertaining to medical cannabis and the need to stop arresting sick people and those who are caring for them;
• 3.) the hard data that verifies the cost of arresting people for using cannabis (as well as other items found in the black-market) is something society can no longer afford;
• 4.) the historical evidence (along with the current needs of the world today such as the mess at Fukushima or world hunger) which demand that humans MUST reintroduce industrial hemp back into the global agricultural markets in order for us and the planet to survive;
• 5.) the steps NECESSARY TO TAKE TO END THE GLOBAL WAR ON DRUGS - which is further complicated by the many anti-drug international treaties.

'Time 4 Hemp' grew tired of waiting for the Cannabis Movement to be given such an invitation and organized this 5-conference series. During each 2-hour commercial free broadcast, moderators conduct discussions with expert panelist brought together from all corners of the earth to present the most current research and statistics concerning this multi-trillion dollar industry. When all is said and done, over 30 professionals will have addressed their concerns and solutions in a format that makes this material available FREE to everyone - including ALL THE WORLD LEADERS.

Steve Levine on Jerry Brown's veto in California

An article from Steve Levine, president of the Hemp Industries Association and founder of the Santa Barbara Hemp Festival speaks about the great loss to his state when Governor Jerry Brown vetoed hemp. It has been frustrating to see this happen, time and again, first with Arnold Schwarzenegger, and now with Brown.

The Governor of California, who allegedly represents his state and is by law a defender of the state’s medical cannabis industry, has vetoed the California Industrial Hemp Farming Act because he is afraid of federal intervention. It saddens me greatly that half a lifetime ago I revered Governor Jerry Brown as a political hero in the mold of Tom Hayden, Cesar Chavez, and even Robert Kennedy. It’s tragic what time can do to a man, and Jerry Brown is no longer worthy of anything other than pity and anger. He has lost his courage.

Industrial hemp has great promise as a renewable, alternative raw material to petrochemicals in composite and textile products. Its seed, as a food source, is second to none nutritionally. With a perfect balance of omega three and six essential fatty acids, it is a nearly complete, easily digestible protein. Dr. Bronner’s Magic Soaps – an organic, free trade, and progressive company – currently imports 20 tons of hemp oil annually from Canada for use in their soaps. It is their goal to source this hemp oil from hemp grown on American soil. This is the case for many California companies.

Industrial hemp is not capable of producing any kind of high whatsoever, yet our government continues to block re-commercialization of industrial hemp by conflating it with medical marijuana. On October 9, Governor Brown of California used his voice to call the federal ban on industrial hemp farming “absurd” while at the same time hypocritically using his pen to veto the California Industrial Hemp Farming Act. The corporate stranglehold and hysterical drug warriors’ lock on cannabis/hemp policy continues unchecked under President Obama.

In a state that is floundering in a massive debt with high unemployment and, apparently, no leadership, the Governor has vetoed a bill that promised to give jobs to its citizens while growing an eco-industry that is sorely needed in this country. Moreover, it would not have cost the taxpayer a dime! Corporate members of the Hemp Industries Association – including Dr. Bronner’s, Nature’s Path, Nutiva and several others – have pledged to jump in and sponsor this amazing opportunity for California and the entire country at no cost to the government and its citizens. While every product derived from the industrial hemp plant is legal, we are the only industrialized country in the world that does not grow this versatile and durable plant. What the hell is wrong here?

As I see it, our government – state, federal and otherwise – is broken. It has become incumbent upon the people of this country to get involved and take back the freedom and power they have relinquished. This is a good place to start. If you also believe that industrial hemp is a unique plant that can help build a green economy in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way, please make yourself heard. For more information on industrial hemp and how to bring it back to our farmers, please go towww.votehemp.com and www.hempindustries.org.

The veto of SB676, the California Hemp Farming Act, borders on treason. It will harm both the citizens and the environment of this country, respectively facing rising unemployment and disastrous global warming. At the very least, this veto by Brown was highly irresponsible and callous.

As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis said, “To stay experimentation in things social and economic is a grave responsibility. Denial of the right to experiment may be fraught with serious consequences to the nation. It is one of the happy incidents of the federal system that a single courageous State may, if its citizens choose, serve as a laboratory; and try novel social and economic experiments without risk to the rest of the country.”

It’s up to us now, as it always has been.

Steve Levine is currently president of the Hemp Industries Association and on the Board of Directors of HIA and Vote Hemp. He produced the S.B. Hemp Festival from 1999 to 2007.
