Hey friend,
Earlier this week, we announced to you the launch of our first ever local-level campaign: to pass a ballot measure to decriminalize marijuana and ban no-knock warrants in Austin, Texas. In an effort to build a massive grassroots wave of support for these key policies and finally get these measures on the ballot for a vote, we set a goal of collecting 25,000 signatures from Austin residents by July 20th.
This is going to be a huge target to reach, but with your support and faith in our movement as we continue building support for these top-ballot issues, we can make a massive impact in Austin, TX, and eventually all over the U.S.
But the clock is ticking – so we’ve set a 48-hour fundraising goal of $5,000 to help strengthen our on-the-ground outreach efforts and ensure we have the tools, resources, and volunteers to run an effective signature-collecting campaign. Whether it’s $5, $10, or $100 – your contribution will help us broaden our reach and make sure we can reach our goal. Can you please chip in today? [[link removed]]

Decriminalizing marijuana and banning “no knock” warrants are policy goals that have the potential to benefit not just Austin, but our entire country. Through reducing police violence and decentering working class and minority groups as a profiling target, we have a real opportunity to tackle racial injustices in our policing and government systems.
These are the local, grassroots opportunities that are sure to transform Texas and beyond – and the people of Austin are ready to mobilize around this urgent issue. At least 87% of Texans want to legalize marijuana for medical or recreational use, and at least 75% of Texans support banning “no knock” warrants – yet many elected officials are not in tune with the needs and interests of their constituents.
Friend, we have a real opportunity to make long-awaited progress and rebuild our government systems and our communities to finally represent all of us, not just a privileged few. It’s time to buckle down and build up our momentum if we want to see long lasting change in our communities and beyond.
We need you with us in this fight, friend, because the only way we’re going to see this change is through mobilizing together. So if you’re ready to bring Texas the change we deserve, please chip in $5, $10, or whatever you can afford to Ground Game Texas. Your donation will help us close the gap on our $5,000 fundraising goal and strengthen our local campaign efforts. [[link removed]]
