The Texas Senate has passed several bills aimed at banning THC products, including a sweeping measure that targets all THC-derived items, reflecting the priorities of Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick. This legislative push comes as Patrick, who recently visited a CBD store where he was carded, continues to lead the charge for stricter regulations amidst concerns over public health. The proposals have sparked a heated debate, with hemp advocates arguing that prohibition is not the solution and advocating for regulation instead. As the industry braces for potential challenges ahead in the House, new polls indicate varying public opinion on whether all THC products should remain legal in Texas.
