January 16, 2020Texas NORML’s Candidate Forum: Greater Austin Area (2/5/20)
January 17, 2020On Thursday, January 23rd, the Austin City Council will consider Item 59, a resolution that would limit enforcement of low-level possession of marijuana (PoM). This will help countless Austin residents avoid the devastating consequences of criminal marijuana enforcement, which disproportionately impact people of color and already-struggling communities. Four members of the City Council are sponsoring the proposal, which needs two more votes to pass.
Please ask your Council Member to approve this important resolution!
