Las Vegas, NV, June 01, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- With over 10 years’ experience in growing and processing hemp in North America, Hemp, Inc. (OTC PINK: HEMP) reports today that longtime hemp supporters are still waiting for the FDA to provide clear federal regulation on the Hemp Access and Consumer Safety Act… a bill that would “make hemp-derived CBD products legal as an ingredient in dietary supplements, foods and beverages” has been proposed by three U.S. Senators.

According to Hemp Today’s article, the “absence of federal regulations from the FDA are creating problems for legitimate CBD vendors and endangering public health. CBD makers and consumers have been faced with inconsistent rules – or no rules at all – in individual states.  The proposed Hemp Access and Consumer Safety Act, in essence, would force the FDA to clear a path for legal over-the-counter CBD.”

According to Oregon Sen. Jeff Merkley, “Every day that the FDA drags its feet to update its CBD regulations, hemp farmers are left guessing about how their products will be regulated, and real economic gains for workers and business owners in Oregon and across the country are left on the table. Hemp-derived CBD products are already widely available, and all we need is for FDA to issue clear regulations for them just like they do for other foods, drinks and dietary supplements.”

One trade group (U.S. Hemp Roundtable) representative, Jonathan Miller, believes if the Act was enacted it would be “a huge win for American consumers, farmers, and the hemp industry as a whole…Struggling American farmers will benefit from a stabilized marketplace. It also will stimulate innovation and job creation in the hemp industry.”
