Washington State Activists Call Off Drug Decriminalization Ballot Effort Even As New Poll Shows Voter Support https://t.co/HQm9pqBTtV

[Commit to Change WA @Commit2ChangeWA]

Thank you for this article @badlin and @MarijuanaMoment. It is with a heavy heart we announce our campaign has made the difficult decision to cease signature gathering efforts this year.

But rest assured, this isn’t the end. We’ll be back continuing the fight next year.

NEW WA POLL with @Commit2ChangeWA: Washington state voters support funding prevention, treatment, and recovery services for substance use disorders and decriminalizing drug possession for personal use, by a +45-point margin. https://t.co/4C80Li6f29

[Commit to Change WA @Commit2ChangeWA]

Getting thrown in jail and saddled with a criminal record for drug use creates barriers for people seeking jobs and places to live.

It’s time for change.

When we treat substance use as a health issue we are better able to address the underlying problems and provide better support.

[Commit to Change WA @Commit2ChangeWA]

Reasons to decriminalize drugs:
✅ Decriminalization benefits public safety and health.

✅ It has been done successfully in other countries (Portugal, Czech Republic).

✅ Washingtonians support a new approach.

Washington, it’s time to do something different. #YesOni1922

[Commit to Change WA @Commit2ChangeWA]

“By removing the fear and shame of drug use, we will be able to remove barriers that prevent Ministry of Mental Health and Addictions people from accessing harm reduction services and treatment programs.”
