New Support for Cannabis Legalization

Where: Oregon

The new group leaning to support: Oregon Teachers Union

The decriminalization proposition: Oregon Votes

Why are the teachers backing decriminalization?

  • access to affordable and effective treatment
  • support services and stable housing

The catch in cannabis tax revenue appropriations:

  • transfer of all revenues in excess of $11,250,000 ($11.25 million) quarterly into the new drug treatment fund
