      Texas DSHS is pulling certain THC and consumable hemp products off shelves this Friday, July 31st—on a rushed 21-day notice with a full THC ban planned for November 12th. This decision begins the wipeout of a **$5.5 billion industry**, threatens over **9,100 licensed Texas businesses**, and destroys thousands of local jobs overnight. Banning safe, lab-tested products won’t kill demand; it just hands billions of dollars straight to illegal street dealers and neighboring states, while forcing Texans back toward alcohol—which already kills over **13,700 Texans every year**. Thousands of people will be arrested for possessing any THC products. [https://www.kut.org/business/2026-07-28/austin-tx-delta-8-ban-police-felony-thc-dshs](https://www.kut.org/business/2026-07-28/austin-tx-delta-8-ban-police-felony-thc-dshs)

      An outright ban isn’t the will of the people. Texas needs smart regulation and guardrails, not the sudden execution of a booming local economy. State leaders must at least **extend this decision to November 12th** to match federal reclassification timelines, giving small businesses holding hundreds of thousands in compliant inventory a fighting chance to survive. **Email your Texas state representatives, the Lt. Governor, and the Speaker of the House right now** and demand they vote NO on the hemp ban and grant an extension!

      > **Campaign Contributions Raise Questions About (Texas Lt. Governor) Dan Patrick’s Push to Ban THC Products**

      > Public records from the Texas Ethics Commission show Patrick received a $250,000 contribution on April 12, 2024, from John Nau, the CEO of Silver Eagle Distributors—a major Anheuser-Busch beer distributor. This was followed by a $25,000 donation on December 2, 2024, from the Beer Alliance of Texas PAC to “Texans for Dan Patrick,” a specific-purpose PAC supporting the Lieutenant Governor.

      > These donations are fueling accusations that Patrick’s policy positions are being shaped by industry influence. Social media commentary has grown increasingly pointed, with one viral post stating, “Dan Patrick sold out Texas. He took hundreds of thousands from Big Pharma, Blue Cross, & medical lobbyists — then pushed SB3 to kill hemp and lie about ‘protecting kids.’”

    5. Who gives a fuck about THC. It’s absolutely crazy. It’s like caring that two dudes bang each other. Who gives a fuck what people do

      Texans really love talking about all of their freedoms even when they vote to have them stripped away

    7. PlutoJones42 on

      Texas: “we can’t find money to fund our public school!”

      Also Texas: “let’s destroy booming industry that pays taxes and let criminal organizations take back over”

      Conservatives like smoking weed too. It crosses the political spectrum. This may affect voting patterns.

    9. lifeat24fps on

      Weird to always be boasting about all that red state rugged Texas freedom and liberty when you can’t consume a plant.

    10. ragdollxkitn on

      Funny because I know many Texan teachers who smoke weed. And most are republican voters. Interesting to see how this will affect voting in the future.

    11. Lundgren_pup on

      So what is the Rogansphere going to do now that they convinced everyone to move there?

    12. But I thought Texas was all about freedom

      I guess the freedom to hate is all they got

    13. MoonOut_StarsInvite on

      If you’re ever been a heavy drinker for a long period of time and then quit drinking – you know how wild of a drug alcohol is and how crazy that its everywhere

    14. SignificanceJust1497 on

      Texans literally act like their state is so much better than everywhere else while they just get their rights taken away from them over and over again. Poetic honestly. They think they’re the most free state while California is ruled by “communism”, meanwhile, California might be the only state I’ve ever seen stand up to big companies screwing consumers and tell them to fix it or lose their business

    15. Tormentedone007 on

      Texas is the state with the most cucks. Love watching the government fuck everything they love.

    16. MileHiSalute on

      when Texans talk about “freedom” they just mean guns and old white men controlling everyone else. state filled with absolutely pathetic people

    17. FoxIndependent5789 on

      Texan here, let me try to explain to people what’s going on here: complete shitbags run the state. The end.

    18. BonSlurpenstein on

      This is all being backseat driven by big alcohol because people would rather smoke weed than drink their beer and that’s bad for their bottom line, and politicians are being paid to rally around weed being a hard drug that’s hurting kids and communities.

      I don’t drink and I’m glad I quit weed because otherwise this would be so personally devastating. I’m sorry to all my fellow Texans with their head on straight who have deep roots here and can’t just up and leave and also depend on legalized marijuana to get through the slog that is life in these times.

    19. EnslavedBandicoot on

      So, why is Texas voting for Greg Abbott again? I need solid reasons not just maga talking points. Companies moving there doesnt make up for something this dumb.

    20. MissMandaRegrets on

      Flock cameras, oppression and data centers. Some much winning. So much freedom.

    21. DiscoLemonade1995 on

      It’s as if conservatism exists solely to make the world a worse place and undo any positive progress. Taking away weed, taking away health insurance, defunding education, defunding social services, banning abortions, removing sex ed, defunding harm reduction, repealing environmental laws and defunding national parks, defunding clean energy. And then the only thing they want more of are guns and Christianity. It blows my mind how so many people can think that such a regressive party are the „good guys“ in American politics 

    22. QuarterFlounder on

      Nearly lifelong Texan here. I left my entire life behind to relocate to the Bay Area last year, and I haven’t regretted a single day. I have real rights, the weather is amazing, the food is incredible, the people are great, and it’s so fucking beautiful here. I’ve found a level of happiness that I was never going to find in Texas. I knew there was better out there, but I really had absolutely no idea just how right I was about that.

      Leave Texas. Stop letting them make you miserable. Go live.

    23. I_Like_Hoots on

      i know some Texas stoners who’ll still say “both sides bad”

      stupid fucks

    24. One thing I noticed when driving through Texas was how many billboards were advertising weed lawyers. We don’t have those in the legal states I’ve lived but it makes me wonder how much money is made by the lobbies trying to keep it banned.

    25. DangerousLoner on

      Yet Joe Rogan will still light up on his podcast and in his clubs. So many drugs swirling in that group and Texas seems to look the other way. Almost like laws are only for the poors.

    26. Jordan_Jackson on

      I have a feeling Texas will be the last state to legalize recreational cannabis. This is the no fun state. No porn, weed, power when it’s cold…

    27. yotengodormir on

      Love the freedom. Unless it’s what you’re smoking, what websites you visit, what you do with your uterus, and what time you can buy alcohol. 

    28. NeanaOption on

      Remember when texas use to be associated with personal freedom and Liberty. These days though it’s basically the North American saudi arabia

    29. It must be so weird to be Texan. On one hand you cry out for freedom and the other you do everything in your power to kill said freedom. The self loathing must be immeasurable.
