Important to note there are lots of recreational products <3mg/0.3% on the market, including gummies and beverages, and consumers could get around a limit by taking multiple serves. This could be a way to find agreement w/ Patrick while keeping some low-potency products around.

In his interview with @JeremySWallace today, @GregAbbott_TX teased that there’s a ~180 pg bill coming that includes his specific THC recommendations. The Senate’s total ban is only 23 pgs . #txlege

Senate State Affairs unanimously votes to advance SB 5, a total ban on hemp-derived THC substances This version of the bill passed the Senate easily during the regular session; the true challenge will be the House.

🧵 The stories out of #Texas have been tough this last week. Hearts are broken over what's unfolded – and so many are grieving for loved ones, friends, traditions, and places in Hill Country that so many hold dear.
