Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway issued cease and desist letters to thirty-three hemp stores, targeting shops selling intoxicating hemp products that bypass the states regulated marijuana system. These products, often containing Delta-eight THC or THCa, have been found to contain contaminants like lead, arsenic, and pesticides. Hemp retailers argue the enforcement favors licensed marijuana sellers, while the legal cannabis industry welcomes the crackdown due to safety concerns. With federal budget talks potentially banning intoxicating hemp and Missouri lawmakers advancing matching bills, the conflict between hemp and marijuana markets continues to escalate.
