2ND MARIJUANA LEGALIZATION MEASURE PROPOSED IN CO
DENVER-Colorado
could have two separate questions about legalizing marijuana on
ballots this fall. A group of marijuana activists unhappy with the
Colorado pot proposal awaiting petition approval from the secretary of
state released a rival suggestion on Wednesday.
The second marijuana proposal would not put a limit on how much
marijuana a person could have for recreational use. The first measure
says adults over 21 could have up to 1 ounce of marijuana.
The rival pot measure also seeks to undo state regulation of marijuana
by the Department of Revenue, which now oversees medical marijuana
sales. Sponsors of the second measure have not yet sought clearance
from a state board to begin gathering signatures.
