WHEREAS the legalization of marijuana (cannabis) fosters crime, homelessness, unemployment, drug related hospitalizations, economic devastation, and the overall degradation of society as evidenced by other states which have already done so, and
WHEREAS the state of Colorado reports spending over $4 for every $1 received in the taxation of marijuana (cannabis), and
WHEREAS the legalization of marijuana (cannabis) actually increases “black market” marijuana and other illegal drug trafficking which involves major cartel activity, therefore
BE IT RESOLVED that the Wyoming Republican Party stands against the legalization and decriminalization of medical and recreational marijuana (cannabis).
