Lawmakers reconvene in January 2027.
Senate Bill 3 was approved by the Texas Senate with a bipartisan vote of 24-7. The bill will now be sent to the House, where there is far less support for an outright ban on THC. (Click here for a refresher on the legislative process.)
TAKE ACTION: Call your representative's office! Click here to look up your state representative's phone number. Here's an example of what you might say when you call:
"Hello, my name is _______. I'm a constituent calling about an important bill that will be up for a vote soon. I'm calling to express my strong opposition to SB 3, the bill that would ban hemp THC products. I support regulations to protect young people, but I'm very concerned about the negative impact of prohibition. Our state will be safer if we choose to effectively regulate these products, rather than criminalizing possession of these federally legal products."
REMINDER: Be sure to remain respectful and thank your senator for their service to your district.
