Important Note
Citizens for Community Values, a 501(c)3 organization, is permitted by law, just as are all c3's, to educate and inform citizens on matters of importance, including ballot issues.
It is important to note that, for purposes of the debate on legalizing marijuana in Colorado, there are three distinct timeframes to consider. Those are: The early medical marijuana era (2000 -2008), the medical marijuana commercialization era (2009 - current) and the recreational marijuana era (2013 - current).
  • 2000-2008: In November 2000, Colorado voters passed Amendment 20 which permitted a qualifying patient and/or caregiver of a patient to possess up to 2 ounces of marijuana and grow 6 marijuana plants for medical purposes. During that time there were between 1,000 and 4,800 medical marijuana cardholders and no known dispensaries operating in the state.
  • 2009-Current: Beginning in 2009 a number of events, marijuana became de facto legalized through the commercialization of the medical marijuana industry. By the end of 2012, there were over 100,000 medical marijuana cardholders and 500 licensed dispensaries operating in Colorado. There were also licensed cultivation operations and edible manufacturers.
  • 2013-Current: In November 2012, Colorado voters passed Constitutional Amendment 64 which legalized marijuana for recreational purposes for anyone over the age of The amendment also allowed for licensed marijuana retail stores, cultivation operations and edible manufacturers.
