Sunmed | Your CBD Store and Small Business Owners Call on Governor Abbott to Veto SB 3, Citing Devastating Economic Consequences
- Sunmed | Your CBD Store and other hemp retailers urged Governor Greg Abbott in 2025 to veto Senate Bill 3 that threatens Texas hemp-derived cannabinoid products.
- This call followed SB 3's proposed ban on most hemp products sold at over 7,500 licensed Texas retailers, risking industry-wide shutdowns.
- Whitney Economics' 2025 report stated the hemp cannabinoid industry employs 53,300 Texans, generates $5.5 billion revenue, and contributes $267 million in sales tax.
- Ralph Paul of Sunmed | Your CBD Store in Keller warned SB 3 would force business closures, layoffs, and lease defaults, while Serenity Organics in Missouri City serves mainly Generation X customers.
- Opponents argue SB 3 harms families, local entrepreneurs, and Texas' economy by dismantling a legally regulated $10 billion industry vital to many livelihoods.
