WA Law Legalizes Industrial Hemp

(Olympia, WA)  --  A recently-passed bill to legalize industrial hemp in Washington is now state law.  Hemp contains only small amounts of the chemical that produces the physical or mental effects of marijuana, and has been removed from the state's list of illegal drugs.  Advocates say hemp could become a new cash crop for Washington's farmers.  The federal government may also remove hemp from its list of banned drugs.
