How Texas Senate Bill 3 and House Bill 46 Could Change the Landscape for THC, Medical Marijuana Users

  • The Texas Legislature passed Senate Bill 3 in early June, which would ban consumable hemp-derived products containing any THC in the state.
  • This legislation follows hemp legalization in 2019 intended to aid farmers but unintentionally enabled a new market for THC products.
  • Senate Bill 3 requires licensing, testing, and packaging regulations for THC products, while veterans, small businesses, and farmers urge Governor Abbott to veto it by June 22.
  • A 2023 WRAL poll found 70% of respondents support medical marijuana legalization, and current debate reflects concerns about accessibility and safety of THC products.
  • If Governor Abbott does not veto Senate Bill 3 by June 22, it will become law, signaling stricter regulation of THC amid ongoing policy and public health discussions.
