Ananda Tomas of police reform group Act 4 SA tells reporters Wednesday that Mayor Ron Nirenberg opposes Proposition A because it interferes with his own political agenda.
Progressive groups backing Proposition A, which would decriminalize marijuana and abortion in San Antonio, on Wednesday called out Mayor Ron Nirenberg and the city's daily newspaper for spewing"disinformation" ahead Saturday's election. During a City Hall news conference, Ananda Tomas — executive director of police reform group Act 4 SA, said Nirenberg's opposition to the ballot measure has more to do with his own political agenda than concern for average San Antonians.
However, if Proposition A passes, Walsh's business-community backers would have to wait longer to get that proposal on the ballot, according to the report — and face doing so in a low-turnout electionWalsh has been a strong ally to San Antonio's business elite, even though the city has grown more economically segregated during his tenure, Tomas said at the press conference., a Nirenberg representative said future charter proposals had no bearing on his decision not to support Prop A.
"The mayor stands by his previous statements on Proposition A," spokesman Bruce Davidson said."He doesn't base his policy decisions on ulterior motives.
