D.C. Cannabis Campaign

The D.C. Cannabis Campaign was an effort to legalize recreational marijuana in Washington, D.C. It involved organizing voters and advocates to support a ballot initiative that allowed adults 21 and older to possess and use marijuana legally. The campaign aimed to regulate cannabis similarly to alcohol, establishing legal sales, taxes, and licensing. It was part of a broader movement to decriminalize and regulate marijuana, reducing penalties and expanding access, while addressing concerns related to public health and safety. The campaign successfully led to the implementation of legal cannabis laws in D.C., influencing national conversations around drug policy reform.
