Two Columbia cannabis microbusiness dispensaries were among nine in the state whose licenses were revoked Wednesday by The Missouri Division of Cannabis Regulation.

The Missouri Division of Cannabis Regulation put 11 businesses on notice in December. Two can continue operations.

The two micro-licenses are among 11 that could be revoked over questions about their eligibility for a program aimed at helping small and minority-owned businesses break into the marijuana market.

State Sen. Karla May, a St. Louis Democrat, said she hopes that the state can strip away the licenses of “bad actors and anyone that is operating outside of the intended constitutional amendment.”

Cannabis regulators issue warning that microbusiness licenses meant to benefit disadvantaged communities can't be sold without approval.
