A recent poll from the University of Houston's Hobby School of Public Affairs found that 62 percent of Texan adults support the legalization of recreational marijuana, while 79 percent think medical marijuana with a prescription should be permitted.

A new poll shows Texans want to ban THC but are in favor of legalizing the use of recreational marijuana. THC or tetrahydrocannabinol is the main psychoactive chemical component found in cannabis and is what causes the sensation of feeling high.

A new poll of voters shows that most Texans are ready for significant changes to the state's marijuana laws, including decriminalization and legalizing recreational use. The survey showed that only 22% of Texans want current marijuana laws to remain in place.
