On Wednesday, the opening day of the 2015
legislative session, Hawaii will join the U.S. Capitol and four other
states in having flown an American-grown and -produced hemp flag.
State Rep. Cynthia Thielen, a Republican who has long
advocated for hemp use, is sponsoring the local flag-raising and
will borrow a flag from Colorado hemp advocate Michael Bowman.
Bowman, according to a press release from Thielen’s
office, enlisted the help of area companies — including a Colorado hemp
farmer — to make the flag.
