THC ban defeated by Gov. Abbott and the Texas House

Because they heard from their constituents, legislators (at least in the House) showed more curiosity and engagement than ever before. Committee members asked thoughtful questions, probed for real-world impacts, and demonstrated a growing understanding that cannabis policy is a pressing public issue—not a fringe debate.
