About Us -
The Safer Texas Campaign
is supervised and funded
by
the
ProtectYouth.org
Initiative,
which consists of two
separate organizations:
ProtectYouth.org and
ProtectYouth.org
Foundation.
The Campaign works to
address increasing concerns that
our laws prohibiting the
marijuana market are sending a
dangerous message to the public
that alcohol is more acceptable
than marijuana. While
educating the
public about the fact
that marijuana is far less
harmful than alcohol to
both the user and to
society, we also advocate for laws and
policies that reflect that fact.

Do alcohol

public safety
mix?

Texas should not
be spending
$600-700 million
annually on
enforcement of a
marijuana market
ban that serves
to protect
alcohol industry
profits while
inflicting
tremendous pain
and suffering on
the most
vulnerable in
our society.
