Working Together Works: NIHC Promotes a Unified Policy Framework for Industrial Hemp

NIHC Policy Co-Chair Tim McCarthy joined other hemp industry leaders on Capitol Hill with one shared goal: to find common ground and build a unified policy framework for industrial hemp.

The discussions focused on aligning priorities around regulations for hemp crops, testing standards, and regulatory clarity to enhance global competitiveness. Together, we’re demonstrating that collaboration, not division, is the path to a stronger, more profitable, and more sustainable hemp industry.

We look forward to continued collaboration toward a workable solution for the entire industry, building on the years-long effort behind the Fit for Purpose Platform. By uniting under a shared vision, we can strengthen our voice in Washington, open new markets, and build confidence across the supply chain.

At the end of the day, it’s simple, as NIHC President & CEO Patrick Atagi often says: Working Together Works!
