Register: Legislative Briefing on New Cannabis Laws (6/23)

We're hosting a Legislative Briefing on Monday, June 23 to breakdown new cannabis laws, the impact on cannabis consumers and businesses, continued opportunities for advocacy, and the 2026 political timeline as we lay groundwork toward the 2027 legislative session. 


Click here to register.


Thanks to the passage of HB46, the Compassionate Use Program is on the brink of significant expansion — increasing patient access and opening the market to more businesses than ever before.

At the same time, we face serious challenges. SB3, a disastrous bill that would dismantle Texas’ legal hemp industry and criminalize consumers of federally legal products, sits on the Governor’s desk. Whatever the outcome, it’s clear: the cannabis advocacy community must stay sharp, organized, and forward-thinking.


We’re focused on unpacking these legislative changes and preparing advocates and industry leaders for what’s next — rule-making, elections, political conventions, and laying a foundation for the 2027 legislative session!

6/21: Gov. Greg Abbott has signed HB 46 into law, expanding and improving Compassionate Use Program

    Hemp Ban Passes Legislature, Advocates Call for Veto

    On Sunday (5/25) the Senate concurred with the minor changes made to SB 3 in the House, sending the hemp prohibition bill to Governor Abbott for his approval...or VETO. 


    Because this bill will cause far more harm than good, please join us in calling on Governor Greg Abbott to VETO SB 3!  If allowed to pass into law, SB 3 would re-criminalize millions of Texans who currently enjoy federally legal hemp products responsibly.

    We would have preferred a system of robust regulation, but we can not stand by while Texas plunges into a painfully familiar era of prohibition.

    TAKE ACTION

    Gov. Abbott: VETO SB 3!
