The Senate’s decision signals another potential standoff with Gov. Greg Abbott, who vetoed a similar ban earlier this year as he called for more regulations instead.

Texas senators appear split in their approach to THC, as some members approved a newly revived ban on such products Wednesday and a band of Democratic senators introduced legislation that would regulate it and move to strip back criminalization.

The Texas Senate next passed Perry’s second THC ban, SB 5, out of committee with bipartisan support last week. The full Senate passed it on Wednesday by a vote of 21-8. The Texas House is also not backing down on a THC ban. An identical bill to Perry’s was filed by state Rep. Gary VanDeaver, R-New Boston, HB 5.
