NCUA has issued “interim guidance” for credit unions interested in serving the legalized hemp industry. The guidance will be updated as needed as necessary regulations are issued by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and others regarding the growth, processing, manufacture, and retail sale of hemp. The change in federal law results from the 2018 Farm Bill removing hemp from Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act (signed into law on December 20, 2018).
NASCUS Legislative & Regulatory affairs staff summarized the alert and it can be found here.

IN WAKE OF APPEALS COURT DECISION UPHOLDING MOST OF NCUA’S FOM RULE, NASCUS’ ITO PRAISES NCUA’S DETERMINATION TO MAINTAIN AN EFFECTIVE FEDERAL CHARTER
Arlington, VA – In a victory for NCUA and the credit union system, the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals upheld virtually all aspects of NCUA’s Field of Membership Rule, overturning the lower district court which had struck down two provisions of the rule.
NASCUS President and CEO Lucy Ito issued the following statement in response to the ruling:
“NASCUS congratulates NCUA on the field of membership ruling and commends the Agency’s efforts to maintain an effective federal charter. We have long held that a competitive federal charter is vital to preserving a robust dual charter system and today’s ruling certainly advances that goal.”
