On Monday, the Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol announced that the Colorado Democratic Party announced that it officially supports Amendment 64 at its state convention and assembly in Pueblo over the weekend.
In a press statement, Cindy Lowery-Graber, chair of the Denver County Democratic Party, said this about the Democratic support of pot legalization:
This is a mainstream issue. Polls show that more than 60 percent of Democrats and a solid majority of Independents believe marijuana should be treated like alcohol. A broad coalition is forming in support of Amendment 64 and I am proud to say that it now includes the Colorado Democratic Party.
The support should come as no surprise, earlier in March, after the Democratic Caucus, the Denver County Democratic Party released a document outlining the planks of its current platform which stated a support of not only "well-regulated, taxed, medical marijuana facilities" but also the decriminalization of marijuana, "allowing its sale, regulation and taxation similar to alcohol, subject to local control."
Amendment 64 seeks to legalize marijuana for recreational use for adults and will appear on Colorado ballots this November. This will be the second time Coloradans will vote on recreational pot legislation -- state voters considered and rejected a similar recreational pot legalization initiative in 2006. But Mason Tvert, co-director of the Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol, told The Huffington Post that Colorado has come a long way since 2006:

So in 2006 who was the govenor a Democrat or a Republican?

So are you also a bit egotistical? I didn't respond to you to begin with. :)

BTW, the DEA is still working in Colorado....

Frankly, I hope it gets legalized federally so we don't have to deal with any more bullshit over this miracle plant.

Also, I don't care if a democrat or a republican helped get it legalized in Colorado.

None of them are Obama.

Who cares about Ron Paul? I'm a Gary Johnson guy. Also wanted Kinky freidman(a democrat) as my states governor. And I know you know what state I'm in.

He could try. Obviously he won't succeed.

Not one president has shut down the marijuana industry in this country, but oh how they have tried.

I will say im in the middle on it. Its a great step, but just legalize it already. It is his second term after all...

Idk about that... Ted Cruz might give him a run for his money. His predecessor as well. Frankly, I miss Ann Richards.

He doesnt have that power. Not even with an executive order.

So again

Thank Obama for letting Colorado and other states do their thing. Becuase he doesnt have to.

He violated Colorado state laws

Bartkowicz was violating state law because he was in possession of 224 marijuana plants for 12 registered patients, while state law only allowed for a caregiver to have 6 plants and 2 ounces of marijuana per registered patient.[SUP][[/SUP]

Cheezy, do you even read these links before you open your mouth and stick your foot in it, I mean my God, it's becoming habitual.



The special agent in charge of the DEA in Denver says federal law still makes growing and selling marijuana illegal.

"According to him and according to what he's seen on the news he probably believes he is legal," Jeff Sweetin said late Friday afternoon. "We will continue to enforce federal law that's what we are paid to do until the federal law changes."
