Oregon Cannabis Tax Act Initiative filed for 2010



Oregon NORML and the Campaign for the Restoration and Regulation of Hemp as "Oregonians for Cannabis Reform" will be campaigning for Initiative #2 in 2010 that would re-legalize cannabis & hemp in Oregon, sold through state liquor stores, with tax proceeds to benefit the General Fund. Oregon has the reputation of being a pioneer state; we're going to be the first state to re-legalize cannabis!

yes it does not suck to live here

With the DEA's actions in the Medical marijuana sense, I think that vendors would actually be afraid to sell it. Still, growers would be off the hook, unless this tax bill is some kind of underhanded way to increase the sentencing on marijuana crime. The first law against marijuana was the marijuana Tax Act of 1937. Basically it made it legal to possess marijuana if you had the tax stamp, although the government only issued a small amount of these stamps.
Also, if a drug is legal in a State, but still listed as a schedule 1 drug, the fed can harass shop owners and threaten them with legal action. In fact, a DEA agent can wait outside a State permitted marijuana store and arrest every person coming out. The charges may not hold, but they are still in their Federal rights to confiscate and detain. What we need is LESS FEDERAL INVOLVEMENT in how we live our lives.
I know that people will see through the Fed's lies and threats and still sell it, but if it becomes impossible for anyone to get the paperwork to sell it, then well, it's one more small step to victory, but a step none the less. On the flip side, the guy selling it without a license may even be in more shit than he would have been. The "less than an ounce" loophole may become obsolete because it's no longer drug trafficking, but tax evasion.

They really fuck you for that.

Ah, but in the case the shop owners are state sponsored. Not saying that the feds won't mess with the state agencies but that is a pretty sticky situation.
