Missouri Republican Party’s Executive Committee Recommends Vote Against Amendment 3

Jefferson City, Mo. — Wednesday, the Missouri Republican Party’s Executive Committee passed a recommendation against Amendment 3.

Amendment 3 will be on the November 8th election ballot. If passed it would allow for the possession, consumption, purchase and cultivation of marijuana for Missourians 21 and older, and would also expunge records for people with non-violent cannabis offenses, unless the offenses involved distributing marijuana to a minor or driving under the influence. The recommendation from the executive committee urges Missouri voters to vote against Amendment 3 citing that the amendment is opposed by law enforcement organizations, drug counselors, the medical community, agriculture groups, and religious organizations; other states that have legalized marijuana have seen increases in addiction, mental health problems, traffic deaths, and rising rates of marijuana consumption among youth; legalizing marijuana through the Constitution would make it nearly impossible for local governments to change any aspect of the law; and no industry has ever been given a Constitutional right to sell their product in the state of Missouri. See the official recommendation here.
