On Tuesday, Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick unveiled what he calls “a major legislative initiative,” announcing Senate Bill 3, which aims to ban all forms of consumable Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in the state.
Regarding hemp-derived products that “might include un-removable non-intoxicating trace amounts of Delta 9 THC,” a statement released by the Patrick’s office reads: "Dangerously, retailers exploited the agriculture law to sell life-threatening, unregulated forms of THC to the public and made them easily accessible," Patrick said, referring to the aftermath of the 2019 passage of House Bill 1325.
