From working over Christmas break, signing an unprecedented farm bill that would legalize hemp to announcing plans to take up President Donald Trump’s criminal justice reform bill and vowing to fund certain border security measures, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell appears to be on a roll.
His roll to legislative success began Monday when he symbolically signed the final version of the 2018 Farm Bill using a pen made from hemp, a non-psychoactive derivative of cannabis that’s useful as a raw material in various industries, including textiles, biodegradable plastics, and construction
If signed into law by the president, the farm bill would remove hemp from the Drug Enforcement Administration’s controlled substance list and allow it to be used legally.
“Making it official with my hemp pen! Proud to have served as conferee on #FarmBill & to fight for #Kentucky priorities,” McConnell proudly tweeted Monday.
“With today’s signature, my provision to legalize industrial #hemp is 1 step closer to reality. Looking forward to voting YES on this bill & sending to @POTUS.”
