last year, and which has been replicated and successfully passed in Santa Cruz and Ann Arbor, as well.
“There’s a widespread acknowledgement that Oregon lacks treatment services and that people really want them,” says Sutton. “Literally, people are dying waiting for treatment.” Initiative 81 in D.C. is also first and foremost a police-reform bill, says Melissa Lavasani, chairwoman of Decriminalize D.C. Much like the Decriminalize Nature initiative first passed in Oakland last year, it would make the possession of psychedelic plants and fungi the lowest law enforcement priority. If someone were charged for possession, it would also prevent the attorney general from prosecuting them.
If the Psilocybin Therapy Initiative passes, the state would have two years to figure out the specifics. A psilocybin board, appointed by the governor, would decide along with the Oregon Health Authority what the requirements are to become a trained, licensed psilocybin facilitator, what types of settings are approved for the treatment , and whether psilocybin can be administered to groups, or just individuals.
According to Ginsberg, MAPS is aware that “psychedelic exceptionalism” — when psychedelic drugs are framed as “better” than others — “can actually perpetuate harms of the war on drugs, including perpetuating stigma, so we do a lot of work to counter that,” says Ginsberg. “We don’t believe that some drugs are better than other drugs. We believe drugs are dangerous because of drug policies.”

Hmmm. Dunno the veracity of the health benefits, but legalizing the drugs will surely reduce drug trafficking in these as also the associated crimes. Which in itself might be a huge benefit.

So overdue. Our society needs this healing medicine. Since it's been taken away or made illegal, look at our collective societal morale. Time to put things back how they used to be.
