US House, District 32
About this race: A US House seat on the 120th Congress map, covering all of Camp, Rains, Rockwall, Upshur and Wood counties, part of south Hunt County, part of north Dallas County and part of south-west Collin County. No cannabis or hemp record was found for any candidate on this ballot, in Congress or in the Texas Legislature. Each was checked against the sources listed on their pages.
Which map this is. This seat is drawn on the

How this score is worked out
Seven kinds of act move this number, and they do not count equally. A recorded vote
counts 3, and so does authoring a bill or signing an executive action; signing on to
somebody else’s bill counts 2. A statement or a questionnaire answer counts 2 as
well, and an organisational endorsement counts 1. A vote takes its direction from the
bill, whose effect is set out in advance; the rest take it from our reading of what was
said, and each one below shows that reading and the reason for it. Acts shown with no
number were examined and deliberately left out of the arithmetic, with a reason given.
- 2026-10-08 questionnaire — Told a publication's candidate survey that he supports full federal legalization and removing marijuana from the Controlled Substances Act, under a regulatory framework respecting state laws, together with banking access, research and medical access for veterans, counted as +2 at weight 2

Questionnaire2026-10-08
Responded to outreach from The Marijuana Herald for its survey of candidates in all 435 U.S. House races. The publication reports that he confirmed his support for comprehensive federal marijuana reform, including full legalization and removing marijuana from the federal Controlled Substances Act; that he said legalization should be implemented through a responsible regulatory framework that respects state laws and prioritises public safety; that he expressed support for H.R. 9471, legislation intended to expand banking access for state-legal marijuana businesses; and that he supports continued federal research into marijuana and its medical uses, expanding medical marijuana access for veterans in states where it is legal, and allowing veterans to openly discuss treatment options with their healthcare providers.
⚠️The source dates this response and not the rest of the guide. The article was published 2026-10-07, carries the standing note that it will continue to be updated as more responses are received, and carries a standing line saying it was last updated on 2026-10-12. It describes this one as an October 8 response to the publication, so the date recorded here is the date the publication gives for the reply itself. The entry was not present when this project read the same article on 2026-10-07; three other Texas responses were taken from it that day.
⚠️Nothing above is printed as his own wording. The article prints no direct quotation from him, so every clause above is the publication's account of his answer, and this record quotes none of it.

Who is paying for this campaign
Campaign finance — Federal Election Commission
Commission candidate H6TX32217, filed as
“BARRIOS, DAN F.”, principal committee C00930024
(DAN BARRIOS FOR CONGRESS).

Everything below covers the reporting period that ended
2026-06-30, as filed with the Commission. These figures lag the
filing deadlines: money raised after that date does not appear until the next report is due,
so a recent contribution is not missing, it is not yet reportable.
What we could and could not put a label on
-
unclassified
$32,592
not matched by any of our patterns · figures cover through 2026-06-30
Fraction classified: 0%. We examined
$32,592 — the 28 largest employer groupings
($23,085) and 5 committee contributions
($9,507) the Commission shows for this committee — and
matched $0 of it to one of our own patterns.
$32,592 is listed above as unclassified.
What that figure is not. $32,592 is what we examined,
not everything this campaign raised: the Commission returns the largest employer groupings
rather than every contribution, and contributions too small to be itemised carry no
employer at all. Read the classified fraction as a share of what we looked at.
Any grouping of contributors into an industry is weedvoter’s own classification, applied to employer and committee names exactly as filed. The Commission publishes employers and committees; it never publishes industries. OpenSecrets discontinued its public interface in April 2025, so nothing here is an OpenSecrets classification.
Money received is not a position. Everything on this card is money that changed
hands. It is not evidence that any contribution influenced any decision, nothing on it is
placed beside a roll call, and we make no claim about anyone’s motive.
For what Dan Barrios has actually done about cannabis, read the record above on this
page — the roll calls, the bills that carry their name, and the date of each one,
every entry linked to the document it came from. That is the part of this page built to be
judged, and it is the part the score is calculated from. No contribution on this card moves
that score by a cent.
