Heavy Interest Shown in Marijuana Decriminalization
In San Francisco the California Marijuana Initiative reports about 40,000 signatures collected in the first phase to place decriminalization on the November ballot. The plan would remove adult personal use penalties and allow small personal cultivation while not altering sale laws. A civil campaign aims to register 18 to 21 year olds across 4 of California’s 58 counties, with 399,000 names needed by June 19. Harvard Law graduate Bob Ashford coordinates the drive, predicting a close vote.
