VICTORY!!! After all of the votes were counted, Proposition 203, the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act, passed with just more than 50 percent of the vote! This is a huge win for medical marijuana patients in the state. Thank you so much for your support!
The Arizona Medical Marijuana Policy Project (AMMPP) is a grassroots organization devoted to passing Proposition 203, the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act. Currently, seriously ill people who use marijuana on the advice of their doctor to treat illnesses such as cancer, AIDS, and multiple sclerosis are subject to arrest and imprisonment, simply for trying to stimulate their appetite or alleviate their pain.

Arizonans Support Medical Marijuana
65% of Arizona voters support removing criminal penalties for the medical use of marijuana, according to a February 2009 poll. And voters have already passed medical marijuana initiatives twice in the state, in 1996 and 1998. Unfortunately, due to a technical error in the wording of these laws, they have failed to effectively protect medical marijuana patients from arrest. The initiative that will go before voters in 2010 will close this loophole and give patients the protection and peace of mind that Arizonans agree they deserve.
