Did Texas just legalize cannabis? After the November 2026 election, Texas voters elected Gina Hinojosa as Governor, Vikki Goodwin as Lt. Governor and James Talarico to the U.S. Senate, defeating Greg Abbott, Dan Patrick and Ken Paxton. All three earned an A grade from the Texas Cannabis Policy Center. So is weed legal in Texas now? Not yet. Here’s what really changed and what happens next.

In this video I break down:

– The 2026 Texas election results and why these three offices matter for marijuana legalization
– Where Hinojosa, Goodwin and Talarico stand on recreational marijuana, adult use at 21+, decriminalization, medical cannabis expansion and hemp THC (SB3)
– The current law in Texas today, and what’s still illegal
– Houston’s new local cannabis measure
– The timeline: the Legislature returns in January 2027, bills must pass both chambers, and the Governor signs
