德州民主党议员提交三项大麻合法化法案:21岁以上可用、家中可种12株

美国德克萨斯州民主党议员11月9日在2027年会期预提交法案的第一天,提交了三项大麻合法化法案。州众议员 John Bucy III 与 Joe Moody 分别提交众议院第362号与第369号法案,两案内容基本相同,都名为《德州大麻管理法》;州参议员 Carol Alvarado 提交参议院第237号法案。
众议院两案主张,21岁以上成年人可合法持有最多2盎司大麻、在上锁区域家中种植最多12株,并由州政府发牌管理种植、检测与零售,销售环节征收20%的消费税。参议院版本把持有上限设为2.5盎司、不设新消费税,并允许各县就是否允许大麻商家表决。若法案通过,将于2027年9月1日生效,州政府须在2028年11月1日前启动发牌。
此次提交距中期选举仅一周:民主党在选举中翻转了德州众议院并赢得州长职位,当选州长 Gina Hinojosa 已表示支持娱乐大麻合法化;但共和党仍以19比12控制州参议院,法案须两院通过才能成为法律。德州议会第90届会期将于2027年1月12日开幕。
Texas Democrats File Three Cannabis Legalization Bills: Adults 21 and Over, Up to 12 Plants at Home
Texas Democratic lawmakers filed three cannabis legalization bills on November 9, the first day of prefiling for the 2027 legislative session. State Reps. John Bucy III of Austin and Joe Moody of El Paso filed House Bill 362 and House Bill 369, nearly identical measures both titled the Texas Regulation of Cannabis Act, and Sen. Carol Alvarado of Houston filed Senate Bill 237.
The House bills would let adults 21 and older legally possess up to 2 ounces of cannabis and grow up to 12 plants at home in a locked area, under a state-licensed system for cultivation, testing and retail sales, with a 20 percent excise tax at the register. The Senate version sets a 2.5-ounce possession limit, includes no new excise tax, and would let counties vote on whether to allow cannabis businesses. If enacted, the measures would take effect September 1, 2027, with commercial licensing required to begin by November 1, 2028.
The filings came a week after the midterm elections, in which Democrats flipped the Texas House and won the governor's office; Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa has expressed support for legalizing recreational marijuana. Republicans, however, retained control of the state Senate, 19 to 12, and every bill needs both chambers to become law. The 90th Texas Legislature convenes on January 12, 2027.
