by Houston Criminal Defense AttorneyTexas Senate Says Yes to Hemp.
On May 15 the Texas Senate said “Yes” to hemp and CBD products by voting in favor of House Bill 1325.
While hemp has now made it through both the House and the Senate, there is still work to be done if the bill is to become law by the end of the legislative session (May 27,2019).
The House and Senate will need to agree on changes made by the Senate to the original bill, such as the right of law enforcement to not only stop, but seize hemp and CBD products they believe could be marijuana.
