OUR MARIJUANA LAWS DO NOT WORK
Every year in this country, more people are arrested for marijuana offenses than the populations of Las Vegas and Reno combined. Almost 90% of those arrested are arrested for simple possession. Yet, 35 years into the federal government's declaring "war" on otherwise law-abiding marijuana users, marijuana is still inexpensive, widely used, and available everywhere. You would be hard-pressed to find a bigger and more costly policy failure. And while we waste endless government resources prosecuting the war on marijuana, we create an illegal market that finances the activities of violent gangs and drug dealers at the same time. We're financing both sides of this idiotic war. Everyone loses.
Our laws do not work.
It's time to change the law.
And that's why we're here. We are the Committee to Regulate and Control Marijuana, a Nevada-based ballot action group dedicated to passing the marijuana initiative that will appear on the November 2006 ballot. Under our initiative, the possession and sale of small amounts of marijuana would be taken out of the unregulated, illegal market and put into a strictly regulated and taxed one.
Our laws do not work, and we're going to change the law.
But we need your help.
More information about the initiative can be found at our campaign Web site:
Please tell your friends about what we are trying to do. Help us pass the marijuana initiative. Register to vote, volunteer, donate.
And most importantly, please remember to vote on November 7.
Sincerely,
Neal Levine
Campaign Manager
