Placing an age restriction does not fix this problem. It leaves the products on the shelves, gives the industry exactly what it wants, and ensures the legislature will never come back to close the loophole. These products are not harmless — they will continue to fuel (3 of 7)

lost productivity in our workforce and, far worse, trigger episodes of psychosis and other dangerous behaviors that put Texas lives at risk. That’s why I passed a bill this session that would have done what the Governor now says he wants to do — but it was vetoed. (4 of 7)

If executive action is taken, the only effective step is to ban all synthetic cannabinoids, converted cannabinoids, and smokeables outright. That is the only way to close the loophole and protect Texas families. (5 of 7)

So goes Texas, so goes America. This debate isn’t over, and I will not stop fighting until we secure real protections for our communities and prevent Texas from repeating the mistakes of other states. (6 of 7)

This article explains how our state is defining the national debate — and it underscores how SB 2024, my bill banning the sale and marketing of vape products containing THC, is at the center of the fight. forbes.com/sites/roberthoban… (7 of 7)

Poor Chuck hates that people use Devils Lettuce. Law abiding adults can’t have this bc Chuck wants his constituents to be drunks & big pharma opioid users. Remember, he called marihuana the “new meth” even though it’s not addictive & not 1 overdose ever

As a Republican Precinct Chair in a District that you serve over we already passed a resolution telling you to stop this unconstitutional attack and I’ll be personally working to primary you.

What do you not get? We KNOW this is for your alcohol donors because alcohol consumption has significantly dropped. We aren't stupid. Why can't you just leave us alone? You're worse than democrats. Always telling us what to do.

More anti freedom nanny state bullshit. I don't even use cannabis but dictating what adults can and cannot consume should not even be an option for the government. Texas is supposed to be a freedom loving state. More like a police state
