The "New Approach" To Legal Marijuana In Oregon

United States Fish and Wildlife Service

Signatures are still being counted, but it appears nearly certain that Oregon voters will decide whether to legalize marijuana for personal use in the November election. 

New Approach Oregon is behind the campaign for the measure. 

It calls its approach "the new gold standard" for its careful construction: marijuana for users, taxes for government, prohibition for minors. 

Campaign press secretary Peter Zuckerman and former prosecutor Darian Stanford join us.
