Dan Patrick Banned It.
Vikki Goodwin fought to regulate it.
Delta-8 is now a Schedule I drug in Texas. Vape pens are a felony at any amount. Vikki Goodwin warned this would happen, and she’s the one who can undo it.
Dan Patrick Chose Prohibition Over Protection
Delta-8, Delta-10, THCA and THCP are now Schedule I in Texas — the same category of drug as heroin.
Vape pens are a felony at any amount. Purchase and possession of products that you could buy over the counter just a few weeks ago are now illegal. Thousands of Texas manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers lost their business overnight. Consumers who relied on tested, labeled products are now buying from an unregulated market.
Still legal:
Delta-9 CBD oils, gummies, capsules and topicals at or below 0.3% total THC • Delta-9 smokable flower and pre-rolls at or below 0.3% total THC • naturally occurring trace Delta-8 • Texas Compassionate Use Program.
Now illegal:
manufactured or converted Delta-8, Delta-10, THCA and THCP • Delta-8 and converted-THC vape pens • purchase or possession of either.

Vikki Goodwin Has a Better Plan.
"Texas needs a sensible regulatory framework for THC, rather than outright prohibition."
— VIKKI GOODWIN, State Representative, Candidate for Lt. Governor
What Vikki Will Do
- Age restrictions with real enforcement.
- Mandatory testing and honest labeling.
- Clear rules keeping products away from schools.
- Legal protection for Texas hemp businesses and jobs.
Why Vikki And Why Now?
The Lt. Governor controls the Senate calendar. Dan Patrick used that power to force through an anti-cannabis crusade, paid for by the alcohol lobby. Vikki Goodwin will use it to get Texas a framework that protects people without destroying livelihoods.
Vikki Goodwin leads Dan Patrick in the Texas A&M Bush School poll taken just before the ban took effect.
Half of Texas voters say the THC ban makes them less likely to back Patrick — 62% of voters under 50.*
