Support the hybrid AB 606 / AB 747 amendment

Wisconsin Assembly Reps, Senators and Governor Evers

Wisconsin hemp is in a legislative gridlock: AB 606/SB 681 and SB 682/AB 747 are stalled in separate committees, and the session window is closing fast. To break the deadlock and keep legal hemp alive, a working group of Wisconsin operators built a single “Convergence” amendment that both sides can adopt.

We didn’t write a brand-new bill from scratch. We extracted and combined the existing language already in the bills and amendments (a “vocabulary bank” approach) and merged it section-by-section to minimize new debates and maximize the odds of passage. The convergence text is designed to be responsible and enforceable: it protects consumers with age limits, labeling, packaging, and COA requirements, creates a clear DATCP licensing/registry path, includes a farmer cultivation pathway, and removes the most controversial roadblocks so the Legislature can actually move.

This is the last-chance, industry-aligned compromise to stabilize the market and protect Wisconsin businesses, jobs, and consumers.


Time is running out and this is a convergence bill comprised of only language from the two competing bills.

Here is the new bill language: HYBRID CONVERGENCE BILL

From: [Your Name]

We have a convergence bill for AB 606 / AB 747 the uses only the language from each bill to create a bill that is right down the middle. We, the undersigned stakeholders in Wisconsin have reviewed this convergence bill and urge our legislators on both bills amend this language into their respective bills.
