In order to get the best possible poll, we surveyed the group of voters least likely to be supportive of our cause. S.B. S.B. 3 and the ban it imposes are unpopular. This is not a Republican or a Democrat issue—it’s about preserving economic and individual freedoms, which all Texans cherish.”

In the United States, alcohol is among the top preventable causes for death. Hemp is already heavily regulated by the federal and state governments. [a] Popular alternative to alcohol that is relied upon by many Texans. Our industry continues to advocate for additional safeguards such as banning the sale of marijuana to those under 21, and a setback from schools. Texans should have legal options, and not be forced to choose dangerous drugs by fear.
Ragnar Research Partners’ polling of 800 Republican primary voters likely to vote was conducted between June 2-4. The margin of error is plus or minus four percentage points.
