California… ‘magic mushrooms’
An initiative that sought to ask voters to decriminalize so-called magic mushrooms and products containing psilocybin failed to qualify for the 2024 ballot when it missed last week’s deadline to submit signatures. That followed Gov. Gavin Newsom’s veto last year [2023] of a bill that would have decriminalized a short list of natural psychedelics, including “magic mushrooms.”
…a ballot measure launched by Decriminalize California has been pitching voters “a world where anyone can cultivate, manufacture, distribute, possess, transport, and consume an unlimited amount of magic mushrooms or psilocybin-containing products without fear of any criminal charges.” It failed to meet a Jan. 10 deadline to submit 546,651valid signatures needed to get on the statewide ballot in November [2024].
