Legalizing Marijuana in Texas
In Texas, smoking marijuana remains illegal. But legalization proponents are receiving unexpected support from military veterans, who state that marijuana is saving lives and helping many with posttraumatic stress disorder. Proponents are hoping to change the minds of Texas lawmakers, and say that marijuana is a better alternative to many prescription drugs. The upcoming legislature is likely to consider bills regarding legalization of marijuana. Marijuana is currently legal in some form in 23 other states. The FOX26 panel discusses legalization efforts and if Texas is likely to legalize marijuana in the near future.
