Mississippi

Mississippi’s HB 1502/SB 2706 legalizes consumable hemp products. It would also implement a Total THC standard of 0.3%. Hemp beverages would be regulated like alcohol, possibly restricting e-commerce and direct-to-consumer sales. Beverages would be limited to 5mg of THC per container and could only be sold in a 12-ounce container.  

 

Please urge legislators to consider the Roundtable’s proposal, which models what many other states have chosen—stronger enforcement, licensing for manufacturers and sellers, independent testing of hemp products, adequate labeling which prohibits child-enticing images, and age restrictions for consumable hemp products. Rather than banning hemp THC products, these reasonable restrictions ensure that adult consumers have direct access to the products they need, while keeping intoxicating products out of the hands of children.
