This is how misinformation spreads. Let’s clarify:
- This was one informal report requested by one councilmember
- No policy change is on the table
- To put it in perspective, 4 ounces = hundreds of joints
- As Mayor, I will not support policies that violate state drug laws
City of Fort Worth considers decriminalizing marijuana possession up to 4 ounces
