Marijuana Debate Examines Colorado Measure
Sep 26th 2012, 11:48

DENVER (AP) – Marijuana legalization in Colorado is up for debate in Colorado, and a debate at the University of Denver Wednesday examines the question.

Proponents of the measure say that marijuana should be regulated like alcohol and taxed to raise money for school construction.

Opponents say the pot measure would increase youth drug use and wouldn’t raise that much money. Former Republican Senate candidate and current Weld County DA Ken Buck will argue against legalization.

Colorado is one of three states considering ballot measures this fall to defy federal law and legalize marijuana without a doctor’s recommendation. Colorado and 16 other states already buck federal drug law for medical marijuana, or allowing people with certain medical conditions to use the drug.
