Small and Homestead Independent Producers Act of 2025
About This Bill
Committee
Latest Action · July 22, 2025
Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committees on Agriculture, Oversight and Government Reform, and the Judiciary, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
The Small and Homestead Independent Producers Act of 2025 would allow small-scale cannabis growers and manufacturers to ship their products directly to consumers through the U.S. Postal Service and private carriers, as long as both the seller's state and buyer's state permit cannabis possession. "Small cultivators" are defined as those growing one acre or less of outdoor cannabis, 22,000 square feet or less in greenhouses, or 5,000 square feet or less indoors, while "small manufacturers" are businesses with less than $5 million in annual revenue. The bill requires age verification to prevent delivery to anyone under 21 and generally preserves state authority to prohibit cannabis altogether, though it would override state restrictions on shipping cannabis between states where it is legal. Importantly, the legislation would only take effect once cannabis is removed from the federal Controlled Substances Act and federal criminal penalties for cannabis possession are eliminated, meaning it cannot become law under current federal law.
