The few weeks better come Donny. You're going in the wrong direction!
Trump signed this bill like Epstein's birthday card
The hemp restriction was a policy rider inserted into the Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Appropriations Act portion of the larger funding package.
Because that specific appropriations bill was designated as "must-pass" (funding the FDA, USDA, and other critical programs like SNAP and WIC), the controversial hemp provision was guaranteed a vote and was protected from being vetoed individually. The President had to sign the entire act to ensure government funding continued and veterans' care was funded, effectively accepting the hemp restriction along with it.
