The Texas Senate has adopted a resolution to partially suspend Senate Rule 12.03, allowing a conference committee to address differences in House Bill 46, which pertains to the medical use of low-THC cannabis under the Texas Compassionate-Use Program. Specifically, the resolution permits the committee to add new text to the bill that was not included in either the House or Senate versions. This addition clarifies that a physician is allowed to prescribe more than one package of low-THC cannabis to a patient within a 90-day period.

The resolution was adopted unanimously by the Senate on June 1, 2025, with a vote of 31 in favor and none against. The change aims to enhance the clarity of the prescribing guidelines for physicians involved in the Texas Compassionate-Use Program, ensuring that patients have access to the necessary amount of low-THC cannabis as prescribed by their healthcare providers.
