What are some things you can do to help legalize marijuana? The legalization of cannabis has come a long way in the last six years. Currently, there are nine states in which recreational marijuana use is legal.

These states have proven the benefits of legalization with money being made and jobs being created by this new industry. With the majority of Americans in support of the legalization of weed, the time has come for citizens to really push the movement.

There are things you can do to help legalize marijuana in your state. If you really believe in legalization, don’t sit back and watch, get up and help the movement move forward.

Brian Vicente, an American attorney and marijuana rights advocate, has spent the last 15 years working full-time on legalization, as well as passing medical laws. In 2014, Vicente spearheaded Colorado’s legalization measure and c0-directed the successful campaign, “Yes on 64”, which lead to the legalization of recreational weed in the state.

Since then, Vicente has been receiving a ton of interest in the Colorado model.

“I spent a lot of time consulting with governments in Uruguay to governments in Canada, as well as across our country, just trying to advise either campaigns or elected officials on how they can alter their marijuana laws to get rid of prohibition,” Vicente said.

According to Vicente, there are numerous ways citizens can help in the legalization of marijuana. With his help, here are seven things you can do to help legalize marijuana.
