The 'San Antonio Justice Charter' has enough signatures to get on the ballot, but will it matter? The City Attorney claims most of the proposed changes aren't legal, and the city wouldn't try to enforce them, even if they pass.
– San Antonio voters will decide on a sweeping city charter amendment in the May 6 election, with an effort to decriminalize marijuana and abortion at its center.
“We’re super excited and happy that we’re going to be on the ballot but know that we have a lot of work ahead to educate and mobilize our community and look forward to having those conversations,” said Act 4 SA Executive Director Ananda Tomas, whose group led the coalition trying to get the issue onto the ballot.
It would also create a new “Justice Director” position, which could not be filled by anyone with law enforcement experience.
