John,
Today is a big day for Ground Game: we just released our “Marijuana Reform Impact Report” from our 2022 electoral campaigns!
You can see the full report here. [[link removed]] Here are some of the highlights from our organizing and electoral victories across five Texas cities:

keep
over
300
people

of
jail
in
the
first
year
of

implementation
in
Killeen
and
San
Marcos
*
In
Killeen,
the
beneficiaries

the
policy
include
Black

to
dramatically
disproportionate
rates
of
arrest;

days
*

I’ve been honored to work with a fabulous team here at Ground Game and in each of the communities we organize in. This report shows the layers of work we do — drafting policy, building coalitions, engaging voters, winning policy victories, and making sure local officials are accountable to the voters themselves.
Ground Game’s work is showing Texans that their voice matters, that their vote matters, and that each of us has the power to shape our destiny. You can keep us focused on building local political power with a generous contribution today. [[link removed]]
Thank you for being a part of this movement. We are inspired by what is possible, and are redoubling our efforts to bring change to this state.
With hope and appreciation,
Julie Oliver
Executive Director
