US House, District 32
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 120th Congress map, the one on the 3 November ballot. Measured by area — not by population — 2.4% of it was inside district 32 on the 119th Congress map, which stands until the end of 2026; the rest came from district 5 (45%), district 1 (23%), district 4 (22%), district 3 (6.5%) and district 24 (0.7%). Your own district may have changed number without your address changing. Check your own address in the district finder.
No record compiled yet. Nothing on cannabis — no vote, bill, statement or endorsement — was found in any source we could read. One limit on that search is recorded with it.
What was checked for Jace Yarbrough, and the limits on it
Checked on 2026-09-18: their campaign site including its biography and launch release, their published biography, a ballot-guide profile and their FEC filing. The Dallas morning news questionnaire was not retrievable, so we have not read it.
Also checked: the Spectrum News report of 2026-03-03 on Texas candidates and THC policy, the only outlet that put the question directly to 2026 congressional candidates, which does not quote them; and NORML’s Texas guide, which covers sitting members of Congress only. We also checked the full membership roll of the 89th Texas Legislature: this candidate is not a member, so there is no state roll call to attribute.
Also checked, and read in full on 2026-09-18: this candidate's Ballotpedia profile at ballotpedia.org/Jace_Yarbrough, including any Candidate Connection survey answers published there, which contains no mention of cannabis, marijuana, hemp, THC or CBD.
Their Ballotpedia profile was read in full on 2026-09-20 at ballotpedia.org/Jace_Yarbrough (28718 characters). It contains no occurrence of cannabis, marijuana, marihuana, hemp, THC, CBD, delta-8 or Compassionate Use. When we re-read their Ballotpedia profile on 2026-10-16, it recorded that they completed Ballotpedia’s Candidate Connection survey in 2026; those answers, which they wrote themselves, contain no occurrence of cannabis, marijuana, marihuana, hemp, THC, CBD, delta-8 or Compassionate Use.
The candidate's own campaign site was found and read on 2026-09-21 at www.jaceforcongress.com — located by search and confirmed to name this candidate before anything was attributed to them. The site publishes a sitemap listing 28 page(s), of which 27 were read, and none of them displays any mention of cannabis, marijuana, marihuana, hemp, THC, CBD or Compassionate Use.
⚠️This card does not tell you whether this candidate held a seat in an earlier Legislature, but the question is now narrower. Read on 2026-10-15, from each chamber’s own journal: the roll of members-elect that the Texas House Journal prints, district by district, on the first day of every regular session from the 75th Legislature (1997) through the 89th (2025), and every senator the Texas Senate Journal names with a district on the first day of every regular session from the 76th (1999) through the 89th.
For the 89th those are journals.house.texas.gov/hjrnl/89r/pdf/89RDAY01FINAL.PDF and journals.senate.texas.gov/SJRNL/89R/HTML/89RSJ01-14-F.HTM and every journal read is listed on this site’s corrections page. No one by this candidate’s name appears in any of them. That is narrower than a negative answer. Those rolls name the members seated as each session opened, and in most years the Senate’s names the senators who were not up for election by surname alone, so a member who sat only in earlier sessions, who arrived at a special election and was never named in full on a later first day, or who served under another name would not be found this way.
If this candidate is one of those, there may be a cannabis voting record this site is missing.
Also checked, and read in full on 2026-10-06: this candidate’s own campaign site at www.jaceforcongress.com — 28 pages, reached from the home page’s own links and from the site’s sitemap.xml, each fetched only after its host’s robots.txt had been checked and found to permit it, 121,565 characters of text in all. The site identifies itself as the campaign of Jace Yarbrough for Congress and names TX-32. The extracted text of those pages contains no occurrence, on a word boundary, of cannabis, marijuana, marihuana, hemp, THC, CBD, Compassionate Use, delta-8, delta-9, dispensary, decriminalize, cannabinoid or psilocybin.
This card has been corrected. What earlier versions of it said, and what was wrong with them, is published in the corrections log.
No score: this candidate has no recorded vote or bill authorship on a cannabis measure. Silence is not a position, so nothing is inferred from it.

Not one of its questions asks about cannabis, hemp or drug policy. ⚠️Against every question this Candidate's entry reads "Candidate has not yet responded", so this records an unanswered questionnaire and not a silence of their own choosing. Their entry carries no occurrence of cannabis, marijuana, marihuana, hemp, hemp-derived, THC, thc-a, CBD, delta-8, delta-9, cannabinoid, dispensary, decriminalisation, psilocybin, Compassionate Use, consumable hemp, SB 3, Senate Bill 3, HB 1325 or HB 46.

This row was built on 2026-10-12 out of the sentence above it in this card's own search log, which named the address and said it had been read while the list beside it did not. It records no reading that the log had not already published. Read 2026-10-17 in a fresh crawl starting from the homepage: 29 pages read at HTTP 200 (the homepage, the site’s sitemaps, every page it links to one level down, and the pages under its issues and news sections). No cannabis, marijuana, marihuana, hemp, THC, CBD, delta-8, cannabinoid, rescheduling, Schedule iii, safer Banking or decriminalisation term on a word boundary in the text or the raw page source of any page read. The same crawler, run the same day from each homepage, found the published cannabis planks on three campaign sites used as controls.
- www.texasnorml.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/2024-Texas-Marijuana-Policy-Primary-Voter-Guide-by-Texas-NORML.pdf — sections on the page: Texas NORML's 2024 Texas Marijuana Policy Voter's Guide, Primary Election Edition, read by us on 2026-10-16 (HTTP 200; on texasnorml.org since 2024-02-26). Texas NORML put questions on cannabis policy to candidates in the March 2024 primaries and printed their answers. It lists a Jace Yarbrough among the Republican candidates for Texas Senate District 30, and every answer box in that row is empty, which the guide's own key defines as "Blank = Did not Respond". ⚠️The table is printed sideways, so the row was matched to the name by its position on the page, not by the order of the extracted text: on page 7 it is the row between Brent Hagenbuch above and Michael Braxton below, inside the block labelled State Sen. District 30. ⚠️That was a different office from the one on this ballot. It is attributed to this candidate because his Ballotpedia profile, ballotpedia.org/Jace_Yarbrough (read by us 2026-10-16, HTTP 200), the profile of this year's nominee for U.S. House District 32, records his candidacy in the March 2024 Republican primary for Texas Senate District 30. This records an unanswered 2024 survey, not a silence of their own choosing.
- communityimpact.com/richardson/election/qa-meet-the-candidates-running-for-us-house-district-32 — sections on the page: Community Impact's candidate Q&A for this November race, published 2026-09-04, read in full by us on 2026-10-17 (HTTP 200). The paper asked each candidate why they are running, what the biggest challenges facing the district are, what their top priorities would be and how they would make sure constituents receive the resources they need in a redrawn district; none of those questions asks about cannabis. The candidate answered, in free text of their own, and no answer printed under their name contains, on a word boundary, cannabis, marijuana, marihuana, hemp, THC, CBD, delta-8, cannabinoid, dispensary or Compassionate Use.
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
Average on the −2 to +2 scale: 2. Full method and the bill table.

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.
All 2 candidates on this ballot are listed.
