The local grassroots, nonprofit organization Mano Amiga announced it will launch a campaign focusing on decriminalizing cannabis in San Marcos.
The organization held a press conference Friday in front of the San Marcos Public Library to further discuss its new campaign along with associates from the Vera Institute of Justice.
“History has shown that possession of cannabis in this county, in Hays County, is the lead arresting charge and has been for quite some time,” said Eric Martinez, policy director of Mano Amiga. “Today we are officially launching our campaign, standing on the shoulders of giants of people who have fought this fight for generations ahead of us to decriminalize cannabis.”
