Our hearts and thoughts are with the communities that have been devastated by Hurricane Helene. The communities and forests of southern Appalachia are deeply and historically connected with the botanical industry, and we stand in support of the enormous number of people who have been catastrophically affected. Many are still isolated and in dire need of life-sustaining supplies and medical attention and we ask our members and network to consider contributing to the relief and recovery efforts taking place. The list below includes donation information for organizations who are providing front-line critical care and support to the communities that were most impacted by the destruction and devastation brought by Hurricane Helene.

Today, Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) introduced legislation that would create a federal regulatory framework for “cannabinoid products” that contain or are derived from hemp as defined in the 2018 Farm Bill: https://lnkd.in/gpPa6_9C “AHPA is encouraged by Senator Wyden's long-established and continued attention to the hemp industry and appreciates the introduction of this legislation in light of FDA's ongoing refusal to conduct rulemaking to permit the sale of CBD or THC containing conventional foods or dietary supplements. Over the last several months, we have been in active communication with Senator Wyden's office on the provisions of the bill and will be consulting with our membership regarding its contents. The reasonable federal regulation of hemp derived cannabinoid products is long overdue given the proliferation of inconsistent state laws that currently apply to these products,” said AHPA President Michael McGuffin. “Specific to dietary supplements, we are very pleased Senator Wyden included language in the CSRA that would give FDA the authority to remove from the market dangerous and illegal drugs that masquerade as dietary supplements, such as tianeptine tablets and liquids, while protecting the existing balance struck by the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994. The CSRA's ‘Prohibited Act' provision refines overly broad language that was introduced in Congress earlier this year,” McGuffin concluded.
