Federal bill may delay Missouri ban on hemp beverages

Warnings are displayed on empty cans of the THC-infused seltzer Triple on May 2, 2025, at Crown Valley CoPack in Farmington. Hemp-derived THC beverages could stay on Missouri shelves past Nov. 12 — the day the state's ban on intoxicating hemp products takes effect — if Congress gives final approval to a short-term funding bill and the president signs it.
