Hundreds of thousands of livelihoods.

NC's hemp industry isn't a fringe market — it's families, farmers, retail workers, and small business owners who built something real.

A ban doesn't just shut down stores. It puts neighbors out of work.

If you live in NC and hemp matters to you — your voice & petition signatures are needed!

📄 Regulated doesn't mean restricted.

It means the product's been tested. The label tells the truth. The business follows the same rules as everyone else. And families know there's a standard behind what's on the shelf.

That's not a limit on freedom — that's how legal industries earn trust. It's what 16,000+ NC hemp jobs are asking for.
Raleigh has a choice: set the standard, or eliminate the industry.

Getting rid of something like hemp so early in the game would be preposterous." Entrepreneur, Actor and former NFL tight end Wes Saunders @wes_saunders88 on why North Carolina should be setting standards for hemp — real product testing, clear and honest labeling, protection for kids and seniors — not eliminating it.

SHOCKER: North Carolina is about to eliminate an entire legal industry — and turn everyday people into criminals for buying what was legal the day before. The House Can Still Oppose HB 328!

Beginning of July, the Senate rewrote HB 328 while the House was out of session. A bill about age limits became a 0.4 mg cap that wipes out 16,000+ NC jobs, $4.4 billion in economic impact, and $87.8 million a year in state tax revenue. This isn't satire.

It's House Bill 328 — and the House can still kill it.

Comprehensive regulation isn't about restriction. It's about responsibility.

21+. Tested. Licensed. Honestly labeled.

That means clear standards for businesses, better transparency for consumers, and stronger protections for families. It rewards companies doing things the right way and creates accountability across the industry.

North Carolina deserves a hemp industry built on trust, safety, and common-sense standards.

Pass HEMP REGULATION this session.

The direction from Washington is clear: protect access to full-spectrum CBD through smart regulation, not prohibition.

North Carolina should follow that lead — not throw away 16,000+ jobs and a $4.4 billion industry with HB 328. Tell Raleigh: regulate it, don't eliminate it. Call now.

🎇 250 years ago, freedom was an idea worth fighting for.

Today, in North Carolina, freedom looks like 16,000+ jobs. It looks like 2,197 storefronts. It looks like families building businesses, employees earning a paycheck, and adults having the right to make their own legal choices.

🇺🇸Freedom isn't just history. It's something we protect, strengthen, and defend in the present.

#CBHD #ProtectNCJobs #FreedomToChoose

[CBHD News @cbhdnews]

💰When we talk about a $4.4 billion economic impact and 16,000+ jobs, we're not talking about abstract numbers on a spreadsheet.

We're talking about businesses that opened their doors, employees who built careers, and communities that benefited from local investment and economic growth.

That's what is at stake. And that's what is worth protecting.

250 years ago, freedom was an idea that changed the world.

Today, that same spirit lives on in the people who build, create, grow, and serve their communities every day. Farmers. Founders. Family businesses. Neighbors.

As America celebrates its 250th birthday, we celebrate the North Carolinians carrying that legacy forward.

250 years of freedom. North Carolina is still building on it.

The message from Washington has been clear: protect Americans' access to full-spectrum CBD. NC HB 328 does the opposite — it would eliminate a $4.4 billion industry and 16,000+ North Carolina jobs.

Stand for freedom. Protect NC hemp. https://t.co/sHLmZCm9rk

🪪 Responsible retailers already know the standard.

✅ Check IDs. Serve adults. Protect kids.

Those goals aren't in conflict. They're the same responsibility.

The conversation isn't about choosing between consumer access and protecting families. North Carolina can do both. That's why responsible retailers card every customer and support clear standards that keep products out of minors' hands.

Real North Carolinians. Real stories. One legal choice about to be taken away with HB 328.

These are the types of families and individuals that House Bill 328 affects. Parents, spouses, neighbors who've made a legal, personal decision about their own care — and who could be criminalized for it overnight.

This is what "eliminate" actually means. Not a statistic — people.

North Carolina's hemp industry supports 16,000+ jobs and $4.4 billion in economic impact. But it's also families making legal choices for themselves. They deserve sensible regulation, not elimination.

Tell Raleigh: regulate, don't eliminate.

🇺🇸 Freedom doesn't disappear all at once. It slips away when we assume someone else will speak up for us.

Right now in Raleigh, that freedom is on the line. House Bill 328 wouldn't regulate North Carolina's hemp industry; it would eliminate it. That's more than 16,000+ jobs, 2,197+ local storefronts, and $4.4 billion in economic impact gone.

And it's the freedom of law-abiding adults to make a legal choice, erased overnight.

North Carolinians believe in personal responsibility, common-sense standards, and the right of adults to choose for themselves. Those values can coexist — and Senate Bill 265 is built on exactly that principle: real rules, not elimination.

Regulate it. Don't eliminate it.

☎️ Call [phone] and tell your senator: stop House Bill 328 OR CHANGE it to Senate Bill 265's language this session.

Sixty employees at one company. Almost 400 at another. Behind every hemp business in North Carolina are families counting on a paycheck — farmers, store owners, salespeople, manufacturing crews who've made this their livelihood.

A HEMP ban doesn't end an industry on paper. It ends jobs, income, and security for thousands of North Carolinians. Urge your NC legislator to pass responsible HEMP regulations. The session is ending soon.

☹️ Imagine driving down Main Street and seeing empty windows where local businesses used to be.
😵 Now imagine that happening 2,197 times across North Carolina.
🏪That's what this number represents.
🎯Not storefronts. Opportunity.

The people behind those doors are business owners, employees, and neighbors who chose to invest in North Carolina.

Hemp is one of the most remarkable plants we've barely begun to use — and 2026 is the year North Carolina decides its future. Make your voice heard with legislators; contact yours today.

This isn't left or right. It's a bipartisan push to break the stigma, educate people, and protect an industry already woven into North Carolina. We're ready to carry it forward. https://t.co/sSWGuGgX0a
