The Missouri Division of Cannabis Regulation has defended its lab testing rules in response to questions about the effectiveness of its software for tracking marijuana products. The agency argued that regulations can only do so much when "bad actors" intentionally falsify records to evade oversight. The defense comes after a major product recall of THC-infused products purchased from a company accused of importing illegal marijuana products from other states. The company argues that it was importing federally legal hemp. The division stated that intentional falsification of records and non-compliance can lead to unreliable test results and potential health risks. Regulators are committed to investigating tracking and testing evasion or manipulation and treating them as serious violations.

Lawmakers in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) have passed a bill to end pre-employment marijuana testing for most government jobs. The legislation, which follows the territory's legalization of cannabis five years ago, aims to regulate marijuana use similar to alcohol use in the workplace. Government agencies would no longer be able to subject most applicants to THC testing, although random or suspicion-based testing for active employees could continue. Jobs involving federal contracts or safety-sensitive work would be exempt. The bill now moves to the Senate for consideration.
