Rolling Stone: First, It Was Weed — Now, Voters Have a Chance for Legal Psychedelics

Summary: “Measure 110 is the first instance of the decriminalization of psychedelic substances MDMA and LSD in the country,” explains Natalie Ginsberg, M.S.W., of MAPS in a Rolling Stone article that highlights state-level drug policy reform measures that are on the 2020 ballot in the United States. “This November, voters in Oregon and Washington, D.C. will have the opportunity to pass initiatives at the ballot box which could lay a foundation for the rest of the country,” says authors Shelby Hartman and Madison Margolin. If these measures pass, they have the potential to offer “a glimpse into what humane drug policies could look like” in a nation without the War on Drugs.
