DALLAS — Texas pet stores will be allowed to continue selling dogs and cats after a state bill seeking to end the practice died in a Senate committee earlier this week. House Bill 3458, authored by state Rep. Jared Patterson, R-Frisco, failed to make the lower chamber’s deadline last week to pass its own bills. Monday was the last day for the Senate companion, authored by state Sen. Judith Zaffirini, D-Laredo, to get a spot on the upper chamber’s calendar.

AUSTIN — A showdown over the fate of the hemp-derived vapes, gummies, flower and edibles market hits the Texas House floor this week, as lawmakers decide whether to kill a burgeoning industry of consumables made with hemp-derived tetrahydrocannabinol — or THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana.
