Description: Attorney General Ken Paxton is suing several cities, including one right here in North Texas all to block its ordinance that would decriminalize marijuana. Denton's ordinance makes it illegal to arrest or write tickets for low-level marijuana possession. Voters passed that in 2022 and since then, but the attorney general has said it violates state law.
