Between the police union and business community, Prop A’s opponents are outspending its supporters by a nearly 9-to-1 margin.

San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg on Tuesday made his position known regarding Proposition A in the May 6 election.

Supporters of a San Antonio ballot initiative meant to decriminalize marijuana possession and abortion in the Alamo City say the city attorney’s public warnings about its enforceability are “unethical” and “immoral.”

Because the proposed charter amendment was the result of a successful petition, the city’s legal team said the city council had no choice but to put it on the ballot.Even so, three North Side councilmen made sure to leave council chambers rather than help pass it: Councilman Manny Pelaez (D8), Councilman John Courage (D9), and Councilman Clayton Perry (D10).
