Editor's note: We recently reported on California legislators passing historic bills to begin regulation of the medical marijuana industry.
The big-daddy coalition of groups hoping to get initiatives on the 2016 that would ask voters to legalize medical marijuana in California said over the weekend that it had taken its big first step in getting its proposal on the ballot.
The Coalition for Cannabis Policy Reform announced to supporters over the weekend that it had "filed" its ReformCA circulation language. Circulation language is used to entice voters to sign petitions necessary to get a proposed law on the ballot. Language needs to be approved by the California attorney general.
"We've filed our initiative!," ReformCA stated. "We believe this effort has the most statewide input and consensus, and thus the greatest likelihood of succeeding on the 2016 ballot."
