Record Searchlight, 04 Nov 2013 - Well, the backers of a new effort to legalize marijuana in California learned at least one thing from the unsuccessful 2010 effort to make the state safe for dope smokers: It's better not to have a pot dealer as the face of your initiative. When the ACLU of California announced last month that it would be "studying" the questions of legalizing pot before putting an initiative on the 2016 ballot, it was Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom who was in front of reporters, talking about how "it is far past time for Californians to take a serious look at smarter approaches to marijuana."

Mountain News, 19 Sep 2013 - This Won't Be Your Ordinary Conference It's not every day Americans get to witness a high-profile federal government agency doing a 180-degree turn on a key policy issue. But a spotlight will be focused on one such turnabout during a two-day conference next week in the Inland Empire.

Orange County Weekly, 12 Sep 2013 - It might be a stretch to say the history of America's underground marijuana trade is encapsulated in the story of Donald Hoxter. Not by much, though. Few people can say they've smuggled as much as 10 tons of marijuana across both the Mexican and Canadian borders per year. Or that they were one of the first hippies in the Pacific Northwest to pioneer America's homegrown crop in the early 1980s, some 15 years before marijuana became legal--first in California, then in more than a dozen other states--for medical purposes.

The Press Democrat, 25 Jun 2013 - Emily Brady was 14 when she watched her best friend in Occidental say goodbye to her father on the morning he left to serve a prison sentence for marijuana cultivation. Her friend ran to her bedroom and shut the door as her younger brother wailed, said Brady, now 36. A notice that the property had been seized and belonged to the FBI hung on the door.

Sacramento News & Review, 02 May 2013 - I heard that California medical cannabis is going to be regulated by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. Is this true? - -Teetotaler Terry It could happen. Assembly Bill 473, introduced by Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, would indeed place medical marijuana under the purview of the ABC. The bill has gained traction, passing through the Committee on Public Safety, and could soon become law. Bealum, NgaioSacramento News & ReviewProposition 192013-05-05US CA: Taking The High Road

The Chico News & Review, 17 Jan 2013 - in November Colorado and Washington Became the First States to Legalize Marijuana. Is California Next? When news broke on election night that Colorado was the first state to legalize marijuana, patrons at the trendy Casselman's Bar & Venue in Denver erupted in cheers, then hugged each other and cried. Organizers and friends of the state's Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol thanked everyone-elderly black women, young hipsters, business execs-and there were far more people in suits than in tie-dye that night. And nary a hint of ganja smoke inside the hip establishment. Downs, DavidThe Chico News & ReviewProposition 192013-01-17US CA: The High Road To Marijuana Legalization In California

The Reporter, 04 Dec 2012 - Last week's news reports that Humboldt State University had developed an institute devoted to marijuana research instantly drew plenty of jokes. "We already have a college research institute devoted to marijuana," cracked late-night host Jimmy Kimmel. "It's called college."

The Press Democrat, 13 Nov 2012 - North Coast marijuana advocates are buzzing about the historic elections in Colorado and Washington where voters legalized marijuana for recreational purposes. They say they're hopeful Californians will be persuaded to take a similar step when they see how the two western states benefit over the next few years.
