New YES on 64 TV ad airing statewide during Democratic National Convention

The Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol is running a political-themed television ad on CNN and MSNBC during the Democratic National Convention this week. The ad in support of Amendment 64 will air statewide from Tuesday through Thursday, approximately five times on each network each night.

Watch the ad below, then use the buttons below the video to share it with any Colorado voters you know who might still be on the fence about Amendment 64.

The goal of this ad is to encourage thoughtful viewers to contemplate the differing ways in which we as a nation treat marijuana and alcohol consumers. Toward this end, it highlights the false pretenses under which the war on marijuana was established. We want voters asking themselves why it is okay for our nation's political leaders to publicly use alcohol as a way to connect with voters, but it is a crime for adults to use marijuana – an objectively less harmful substance – in the privacy of their homes. As the ad says: "It's time for a more sensible approach. It's time to regulate marijuana."
