Texas Senate Bill 3: The Future of Hemp and THC Products
Texas is on the brink of a significant shift in its cannabis policy with the passage of Senate Bill 3 (SB 3). This bill aims to ban the sale and possession of all consumable THC products, including those derived from federally legal hemp. Governor Greg Abbott's upcoming decision will determine if this ban will go into effect on September 1, 2025. SB 3 targets all intoxicating THC variants like Delta-8, Delta-9, and Delta-10, while non-psychoactive cannabinoids like CBD and CBG will remain legal. The bill has strong support and opposition, with supporters citing public health concerns and opponents warning of severe economic and healthcare impacts. If enacted, the law will impose harsh penalties for possession and could undo the leniencies provided by the 2019 Texas Hemp Farm Bill.
