Any state can still make it illegal in their state.
Yeah I know a bunch of Autistic children who can "finally calm down" lol
A schedule 1 drug cannot be decriminalized as long as its schedule 1. This is a necessary step to full decriminalization.
“Tell me you are concerned about the economy without telling me”
What they are doing is a joke and a waste of time. When the government gets it set up in a way that they completely control it, then they will legalize.
Been on sativa for three months, medical prescription, and it has helped me so much. It’s beautiful.
Long time smoker here but have quit due to drug testing and really valuing my job I hope this changes things for Texas. When I was younger it was just about chasing a high but now it’s one of the few things that helps with my arthritis pains, it doesn’t go away but taking the edge off of a pain level 7+ everyday is enough for me. Never knew medical marijuana could help with autism as well. My daughter is probably far to young but I will be researching that as I am curious what studies are saying behind that.
Do what you want America we have limited time on earth.
The whole souty still lives in the jim crow days
Declassified it myself 25 years ago
Final nail in the coffin to turn Texas into a liberal hellscape
It Will Cause MORE cartels to move into Texas .
Ooh looks like all the PohPohs gunna start losin money now.
I am an advocate for the decriminalization and the legalization of marijuana. But let me be perfectly clear, no matter what anybody says marijuana does not control pain in any way shape or form.. it does control, anxiety, nausea, stress, insomnia, and many other necessary applications for illness….. but it absolutely does not control pain!!
We need to legalize it statewide. It’s free money Abbott. Either drug cartels get that money or TX run businesses do.
Booooooo Texas is waaaaaaaack!
Full legalization
As an American I think that if it’s legal in one US state then it should be legal in ALL US states,,,,,I mean we are the United States of America and not segregated to allow it in certain states and not be in others and it just doesn’t make sense when people all over can benefit from the marijuana market 👍
declassify
Texas is lost😂
Oh this means nothing significant… legalize it
That’s all great but the citizens of Texas want access like our neighbor states for consumption.
If the US government legalized marijuana in the 1990s we wouldn’t have the drug problems we have today !!!!
Alcohol has killed more people in Texas than marijuana
Just in time for the election
Just make it legal
Tell that to mr gregg
Who ever cared ? Gonna smoke no matter what anyone says. If you got a problem with it you are a Knuck
Gov Abbott and republicans will find some other way to make the lives of Texans difficult.
Look up hometownhero, they are in austin texas and sells REAL 25% thca bud cuz thca is real. Its a loophole but still the law. Also they sell edibles under 0.3% which has under 0.3% DELTA 9 THC. All they sell is real and top quality
i just ordered delta 8 is it legal or not? i keep getting mixed responses
Puff puff pass
Legalize cannabis federally – it’s time.
Enough talk, legalize it.
get a medical mj card and lose your gun rights
Get it done
Texas is a terrible place to live i was born and raised there. Took 25 years but glad i moved away.
Their products are yukky.
I was recently arrested for a tiny bit of shrooms (psilocybin) and it was a $16k bond and class 2 felony possession of a controlled substance. The guy next to me in holding was arrested for the exact same amount of FENTANYL and got the exact same charge as me. Its insane.
Oh the old dinosaur politicians finally starting to catch up with the people
Only 79,000 patients lol 😂 and how about the millions of Texas residents who dgaf and are using because it’s okay 👍 they will never stop beating around the bush.
I am old autistic with PDA and dyspraxia. With my nervous system, I go from 0 to 100 internal rage over anything. (I keep it internalized, but that comes with CPTSD and masking, etc.) I spill things, break things, and get injured daily; and that is infuriating. This stuff helps keep me from raging/calms me back down quickly. Trust me, you want me high. It helps dull some of the joint and other pain, and I’ve had some level of pain for as long as I can remember. I don’t want the other damage to my body that comes with otc pain medications and I don’t want to get addicted to other medications, so I just suffer through it. This stuff helps with the anxiety and stress I get from having to interact with other people. It puts me on an even keel. Having dyspraxia, I am already uncoordinated; so I really should not drink alchohol. It helps with my insomnia, so I can sleep. Best stuff for me.
maaan let the troops smoke the riffer !
What a load of BS. We’re a narco state and it will have consequences.
Lame
As long as Greg Abbott is sitting governor marijuana will go nowhere in Texas
He definitely looks like a doctor that prescribes medical marijuana… 😂
Texas police want an excuse to arrest minorities, all while leaving white people to enjoy their "freedom."
😆 Freedom Hating Texas 😆
😆 Masquerading as being small government
😆 Nanny State of Texas, Lone Star rated 😆
Useless regurgitated content, as usual, from our Texas media not asking the REAL questions WE ALL have to our politicians. What on EARTH is taking so long for Texas to pass recreational use??
