DEA chief Michele Leonhart is known to be a foe of hemp. She previously told a group of sheriffs she was upset by a flag made of industrial hemp that flew over the U.S. Capitol on July 4, 2013, at the behest of Rep. Jared Polis (D-Colo.).

Sheriff Thomas M. Hodgson of Bristol County, Massachusetts, told the Boston Herald in January that Leonhart "said her lowest point in 33 years in the DEA was when she learned they'd flown a hemp flag over the Capitol on July 4. The sheriffs were all shocked. This is the first time in 28 years I've ever heard anyone in her position be this candid.”

"This shows how shockingly out of touch Michele Leonhart is," Polis told HuffPost at the time. "You would think that one of her lowest points would have been when she completely embarrassed herself by failing to state the obvious scientific fact that marijuana is less harmful and addictive than heroin."

An ignorant Chief of the DEA is not helping anything imho. If I am James Comer I am going to start sharing the stories in the media about the fact that the number one opponent of Hemp farming is the illegal pot farmer b/c hemp turns female marijuana plants to males rendering them useless. If only fact and logic ruled this land it would be a whole another world.

They are now saying they need to apply for a schedule one drug import permit. The DEA are zealots that are fighting a war to keep their agency a bloated mess that terrorizes the American tax payer imho

Should be a state by state issue.
