What are your thoughts about a 2012 initiative?

Published: February 18, 2011

Supporters of marijuana policy reform are coming together to produce a statewide ballot initiative that would end cannabis prohibition in Colorado in 2012. No single organization or individual is heading the effort; rather, there is a wide variety of activists, organizations, businesses, professionals, and other stakeholders working together to create and pass the best law possible. 

The Colorado-based organization SAFER, is working to engage as many people as possible in the process. They are soliciting input and feedback from the community, which will be brought to the table as an initiative is drafted by some of the most qualified attorneys and advocates from across Colorado and around the nation.

If you would like to take part in the process of putting together the best possible initiative for 2012, please send an e-mail to mail@saferchoice.org. This is your chance to say what you do or do not want to see in the initiative. Or you can just share any ideas or thoughts you have about the process. As you can imagine, SAFER probably won’t be able to respond to every e-mail, but we assure you they will all be read and taken into consideration. Submissions must be received on or before February 25, 2011.

To get an idea of what a 2012 ballot initiative could entail, please check out this column by SAFER executive director Mason Tvert, which appears in the February issue of Kush Magazine.
