New Poll Shows GOP Voters Want THC Products Banned
[[link removed]][link removed]
In a recent survey, people were asked this question:
Many states have already banned dangerous THC products. But others want to go in the opposite direction and legalize THC, which law enforcement says will make Texas look like Colorado, and create the largest marijuana market in the country. Knowing this, do you favor or oppose making Texas the largest market for marijuana?
74% of voters who voted in a Republican primary said they oppose! The polls don’t lie. Much misinformation has been spread through the media, and this survey [[link removed]] paints a vivid picture of how strongly our voters feel about this topic.

After a very successful regular session and after passing all 38 bills from the special session twice, I’m ready to hit the ground running for re-election. With the help of my Texas Senate, we've accomplished a great deal, but there is more work to be done. This session, we virtually eliminated school property taxes for the average senior for the rest of their life and cut school property taxes nearly in half for Texans under 65. I remain committed to continuing to lower property taxes in the sessions to come.
Together, we must continue to build a stronger, safer, and more prosperous Texas for future generations. The Texas Senate works for Texas and delivers major conservative victories—and we’re just getting started. Vote Team Texas Senate 2026!

I spoke with Molly Line on Fox News Saturday morning about our redistricting plan in Texas.
Texas is doing the legal and right thing by passing a new congressional map that adds five Republican seats. Click here to watch the interview [[link removed]].
“The Senate passed all 18 bills on Gov. Abbott’s call in the first special session and is on track to do it again”

The Senate passed all 18 bills on Gov. Abbott’s call in the first special session and is on track to do it again. The Texas Senate once again proved we can deliver real results for the people of Texas. On Monday night and Tuesday, we passed nearly all of the bills on Gov. Abbott’s call—many with strong bipartisan support—covering critical priorities including legislation for disaster preparedness and July 4th flood recovery, protecting women’s spaces, banning taxpayer-funded lobbying, property tax relief, and more.
I am proud of the senators for their hard work and commitment to moving these bills forward. Finally, the House Democrats have shown up. I look forward to receiving legislation from the House in the coming days. Texans expect their elected officials to stay in the state and get the job done, rather than fleeing to other states just because they oppose a particular bill.
The Senate will continue to advance the people’s business, no matter how many special sessions it takes.

* SB 2 – Natural Disaster Preparation and Recovery, by Sen. Charles Perry, R-Lubbock
