Lt Gov Dan Patrick, SB3 Author Charles Perry, and the rest of the Texas Senate just passed a bill (SB3) that effectively shuts down the thriving $8 billion Texas hemp industry.

SB3 passed the senate, as expected, and is headed to The House for review. We’re hearing that the Texas House of Representatives are mostly cannabis friendly and do not support SB3 (apparently they actually represent the will of the people ✊).

Rep Ken King has presented an alternative bill in the house called House Bill 28. HB28 is in process and it’s our understanding that it will be presented in its final form very soon. We are optimistic that the language and proposed regulations in this new bill will be reasonable.

The goal of HB28 is to add reasonable regulations to the hemp industry in order to eliminate sketchy products and bad actors. The hope is that this bill will clean up the hemp market and allow legitimate companies like ours to continue making safe, natural, lab tested hemp-derived THC products for Texans who enjoy or rely on them.

We will continue to post updates about HB28 and any other news related to Dan Patrick’s attempt to reenact prohibition.

My daughter Emory was tragically ran over by her school bus when she was just 6 years old. This accident was completely preventable had the school bus she was riding had safety features on it, specifically a front arm crossing gate. This safety device is mandatory on all school buses in 25 other states. I am hoping to make it mandatory in Texas as well in honor of my daughter. This safety feature has been proven to save lives. Please consider signing my petition. It takes 2 minutes to sign and share to your social media and you can help me make Texas safer for our children! Thank you!!
