The House Appropriations Committee, led by Rep. Andy Harris (R‑MD), introduced language that would redefine “hemp” under federal law, banning products with any “quantifiable amount” of THC or similar cannabinoids.
Let’s be clear:
This isn’t just targeting intoxicating compounds like delta-8. If passed as written, it could ban CBD oils, tinctures, full-spectrum gummies, THCa flower, and other trace-THC products—even if they comply with the 0.3% THC limit required by law at the time of harvest.
Yup, even your favorite Jam’n goodies could be considered illegal.
After pushback, the committee added report text to clarify that the ban isn’t meant to target non-intoxicating or industrial hemp. But that “clarity” isn’t written into the actual bill—so legally, it’s still wide open to interpretation.
Translation?
Without real protections in the law, millions of consumers and businesses are at risk.
At Jam’n Hemp Co., our mission has always been rooted in family, wellness, and nature. We started this journey for our sons, who needed alternatives to harsh pharmaceutical meds. Hemp gave us hope—and gave them relief.
This bill threatens access to the same plant-based support that’s helped families like ours across the country.
If this passes, it could:
Ban legal hemp-derived products you rely on every day
Put small businesses like ours at risk
Undo the progress made under the 2018 Farm Bill
Thankfully, the U.S. Hemp Roundtable has launched a Federal Action Center that makes it easy to speak out: (click on link below to navigate to the Hemp Roundtable website)

There, you can send a pre-written message to your Representatives and Senators in less than 2 minutes. Let them know you support:
Keeping legal hemp products accessible
Stopping the blanket ban on trace-THC formulas
This Thursday, the U.S. Senate is holding a hearing that could devastate the hemp industry.
The Senate Subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development, FDA, and Related Agencies will review language that would redefine hemp and ban any product containing a quantifiable amount of THC—even trace amounts.
In plain terms, this could outlaw most full-spectrum hemp products, including those that are currently legal and federally regulated.
We’ve faced similar threats before—and with your support, we’ve stopped them.
Now it’s time to speak up again and protect the future of hemp.
The hemp community stands for wellness, freedom, and natural choice. This isn’t a fight we can sit out. Contact your lawmakers today, share this post, and let them know: real hemp families won’t back down.
Feeling inspired? Give your legislators a quick call, share your story on social media, or even host a local meeting. Every voice counts.
With gratitude and resolve,
