Hemp is Legal
in many countries
throughout Europe
and Asia, including the
United Kingdom, the
Netherlands, and China.
A little rebellion
now and then
is a good thing.
Thomas Jefferson
In any civilized
society, it is
every citizen's
responsibility to obey
just laws. But at the
same time, it is every
citizen's responsibility
to disobey
unjust laws.

We the People: Hemp to save the Planet
What the CTA Petition will do
Protect children! This is the real “Protect Our Children” initiative. The Cannabis Tax Act (CTA) will take the lucrative marijuana market out of the blackmarket where children and substance abusers often control it today, and place it in state liquor stores, where the age limit of 21 and older is strictly enforced.
Help farmers! We will license farmers to cultivate cannabis for both medicinal and adult private use. Farmers will be able to grow industrial hemp without a license, for paper, fabric, protein and oil.
Allow doctors to prescribe untaxed cannabis through pharmacies, so patients won’t have to grow their own or buy medicine illegally.
Raise millions of dollars in new public revenue, lowering the tax burden on all and saving you money. Take the profit out of crime.
Restore industrial hemp, the most productive agricultural source of fiber protein and oil. Hemp seed oil is diesel fuel. The first cordage, cloth and paper were invented from hemp fiber.
Wipe out the black-market. The CTA allows police and the courts to concentrate on real criminals that hurt others, not arrest, prosecute and jail harmless, productive adult cannabis users. Stop our government from tearing families apart. Let’s show real family values and end cannabis prohibition.
