The full story is below the jump.

Missouri Gov. Mike Parson (R) Executive Order Last week, Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft rejected the emergency rules because they did not meet certain state law criteria. Missouri Independent reports.

The ban, which was supposed to take effect on September 1, would have prohibited the sale of hemp-derived products containing delta-8 and delta-10 THC, hexahydrocannabinol (HHC), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC-O), tetrahydrocannabiphoral (THCP), and tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV). After Ashcroft rejected the Governor’s plan, officials must now submit rules to ban intoxicating products, just like any other law. This could take up six months, according to the governor. Letter of scathing criticism Ashcroft,

“Our office and hundreds and thousands of parents and grandparent across the state see the issue of protecting Missouri children as a matter that requires immediate action.” Secretary Ashcroft, by refusing to grant an emergency rule to ban the sale and distribution of psychoactive cannabis products to children in particular, is choosing personal vendetta over the safety and health of Missouri kids. Parson, in an Press release

A spokesperson from Ashcroft’s office stated that he has “discretion” to determine whether a rule is an emergency. The standard rules procedure includes 30- or 60-day public comment periods, “where individuals on either side can comment on the rule.”

Chuck Hatfield, attorney for the Missouri Hemp Trade Association told the Independent that the legislature should be responsible for regulating the hemp product industry, and not the governor by executive action.

“Trying to do this through executive orders and bureaucratic actions is just not good governance,” he said. “I think that the Secretary of State acknowledged this today in part.”
