In a surprising turn of events, Governor Greg Abbott vetoed the controversial Texas THC ban bill, a move that has sparked major conversation across the state. The bill, which sought to outlaw all products containing THC — including popular hemp-derived items like Delta-8 and Delta-9 — would have put tens of thousands of businesses and consumers at risk. For now, THC products remain legal in Texas, but the legal landscape is far from settled.
So, what does this mean for you?
✅ The Good News: THC Products Are Still Legal (for Now)
If you’re a consumer or business owner in the hemp industry, the veto offers a temporary sigh of relief. THC-infused edibles, oils, vapes, and other hemp-derived items can continue to be sold and possessed — for now.
But that doesn’t mean you’re in the clear. With Texas lawmakers likely to revisit the issue in the next session, it’s more important than ever to stay informed and legally protected.
⚖️ Legal Gray Areas Still Exist
Despite the veto, THC-related arrests and legal confusion remain common across Texas. Some local jurisdictions enforce stricter interpretations of cannabis laws, and law enforcement officers may still pursue charges depending on the product type and context.
This is where The Law Office of Shawn C. Brown P.C. comes in.
