Texas lawmakers will convene for a special session called by Governor Greg Abbott to address multiple issues, including flood management, redistricting, and the regulation of THC products.

The session will explore alternatives to a complete ban on consumable THC products in the state.

During the regular legislative session, Senate Bill 3, which proposed banning the sale of THC-infused products, passed both the Texas House and Senate. Governor Abbott vetoed the bill, recommending a regulatory framework similar to that of alcohol.

Danny Cassidy, owner of CBD American Shaman in Houston’s Heights neighborhood, follows the developments closely. His business sells various THC-related products, including dog treats, drinks, and topical creams. Cassidy stated that a full ban would require closing his shop, as the products he sells would become illegal.

The proposed regulations have prompted discussion among small business owners and individuals using THC products for medical reasons, such as veterans treating PTSD.

Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, a supporter of the bill, highlighted challenges in regulating over 8,000 THC stores operating in Texas. He raised concerns about youth access and advocated for strong regulations, including the possibility of a ban.

Cassidy supports regulation that includes age restrictions and ID verification to keep THC products away from minors. Governor Abbott supports similar measures, such as age verification, product labeling, and zoning regulations to ensure public safety.

Cassidy noted that customers use THC products for issues such as stress, anxiety, pain, sleep aid, and inflammation, often as a last resort.

The special session begins on Monday, with business owners hoping lawmakers will consider regulations that balance continued operations with public health safeguards.
