Office Supply/Petition Signatures Collection

One of our community partners (and recent CREF recipient), ACT4SA, has launched petitioning efforts for its ballot initiative promoting a “San Antonio Justice Charter”.

The New San Antonio city charter initiative would amend the City Charter of San Antonio to adopt a justice policy that will, reduce unnecessary arrests, mitigate racial bias, and save scarce public resources through a comprehensive set of popular reforms, including:

· Ending enforcement of low-level marijuana possession

· Ending enforcement of abortion care

· Banning no-knock police warrants

· Banning police chokeholds

· Prioritizing citations instead of arrests for low-level nonviolent crimes

To learn more about the charter initiatve, go to https://act4sa.org/sa-justice-charter/

Next Sunday, before and after church, the Racial Justice-Black Lives Matter group will be on the church patio collecting petition signatures for this initiative and collecting office supply donations for ACT4SA.
