YouTube Description
as posted by the channelA Texas Senate committee will take up a bill on Monday that would ban all consumable THC products, including gummies and edibles containing Delta 8 and Delta 9.
A TEXAS SENATE COMMITTEE WILL TAKE UP A BILL TODAY THAT WOULD BAN PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN THE ACTIVE INGREDIENT IN MARIJUANA.
THE PRODUCTS THAT WOULD BE BANNED BY THIS BILL ARE SOLD ALL OVER THE TEXAS...READILY AVAIIABLE TO CONSUMERS.
SENATE BILL THREE...WHICH SEEKS TO CRIMINALIZE THEM, WILL BE THE SUBJECT OF A HEARING TODAY BEFORE LAWMAKERS.
A BAN ON CONSUMABLE PRODUCTS CONTAINING THC...THE ACTIVE INGREDIENT IN MARIJUANA, IS IS A TOP PRIORITY FOR G.O.P. LEADERS, IN THE CURRENT LEGISLATIVE SESSION.
THIS BILL IS LARGELY IN RESPONSE TO A 2019 LAW, THAT ALLOWED FOR THE COMMERCIALIZATION OF HEMP... WHICH INDLUDES PRODUCTS WITH T-H-C LEVELS UNDER THREE PERCENT.
THERE ARE LOTS OF PRODUCTS INCLUDING GUMMIES AND DRINKS, THAT ARE PRESENTLY BEING SOLD IN SMOKE SHOPS, CONVENIENCE STORES, AND OTHER LOCATIONS...AS WELL AS ONLNE.
THE STATE'S AGRICULTRE COMMISSIONER SAYS UNDER THE CURRENT LAWS...THE MARKET IS ESSENTIALLY UNREGULATED, AND CUSTOMERS DON'T ALWAYS KNOW WHERE THEY ARE GETTING.
SOME PRODUCTS... HE SAYS SUBSTANTIALLY EXCEED THE CURRENT ALLOWABLE LEVELS OF T-H-C.
BUT MANY SHOPS SAY THAT IS NOT TRUE...AND THE PROPOSED BAN COULD FORCE THEM TO CLOSE.
SHOP OWNERS ALSO ARGUE A LEGAL AND REGULATED MARKET FOR RECREATIONAL PRODUCTS... IS THE BEST WAY TO INSURE SAFETY...RATHER THAN JUST A BLANKET PROHIBITION.
SENATE BILL 3 CALLS FOR SOME STIFF PENALITIES.... POSSESSING THE PRODUCTS WOULD BE PUNSHIABLE BY UP TO A YEAR...IN JAIL, AND A FINE OF 4,000 DOLLARS.
MANUFACTURING CARRIES TOUGHER PUNSHIMENT.
TODAY'S COMMITTEE HEARING ON THE BILL....IS SET TO GET UNDERWAY AT 9AM.
