The Texas special session July 2025 was called by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to address the regulation of THC products in Texas. As reported by KHOU in Texas:

Abbott called the special session after vetoing Senate Bill 3, which would have banned THC products like Delta-8 and Delta-9 across the state. Instead of an outright ban, Abbott wants lawmakers to focus on regulating these products, a decision welcomed by veterans’ groups and small businesses who rely on the sale of hemp-derived products.

But [Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick] wasn’t pleased. He publicly criticized the veto on social media and reinforced his stance at a press conference, signaling a deeper divide within the Texas GOP.[1]

The list of legislation vetoed by Gov. Abbott that may be a topic of this special session was identified by him on June 23 as follows:[2]

*Senate Bill 3: Relating to the regulation of products derived from hemp, including consumable hemp products and the hemp-derived cannabinoids contained in those products.
  • Senate Bill 648: Relating to recording requirements for certain instruments concerning real property.
  • Senate Bill 1253: Relating to impact and production fees for certain water projects and to the regulation of certain wells; authorizing a fee.
  • Senate Bill 1278: Relating to an affirmative defense to prosecution for victims of trafficking of persons or compelling prostitution.
  • Senate Bill 1758: Relating to the operation of a cement kiln and the production of aggregates near a semiconductor wafer manufacturing facility.
  • Senate Bill 2878: Relating to the operation and administration of and practices and procedures related to proceedings in the judicial branch of state government.
