The drug also would be taxed at every stage, from grow-
ing and processing to selling. State studies were done show-
ing legalization could bring in half a billion dollars a year
for schools, health care and substance-abuse prevention.
The list of co-sponsors was unimpeachable: Steves,
McKay, Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes, the former top
public health officer for Spokane County, two past presi-
dents of the state bar association, a top University of Wash-
ington addiction expert. The Seattle Times’ editorial page
offered its own endorsement.
National drug-policy reform groups also were focusing
on 2012. The New York-based Drug Policy Alliance saw
campaigns developing in three states _ Washington, Col-
orado and Oregon _ and it had the money on-the-ground
advocates so desperately needed. The alliance is funded in
part by billionaire and longtime liberal political donor
George Soros, who came out in favor of marijuana legal-
ization in 2010.
The organization chipped in more than $1.6 million in
Washington. The Washington, D.C.-based Marijuana Policy
Project gave $1 million in Colorado.
Then came another big donor. Peter Lewis, the founder of
Progressive Insurance, had used marijuana after a leg
amputation and had been a big contributor to medical mar-
ijuana campaigns. His people initially told Holcomb they
didn’t think I-502 would pass, but then he offered a match:
If they could raise $650,000, he’d kick in $250,000. New
Approach Washington met the goal, and Lewis became the
campaign’s biggest donor, responsible for more than $2
million of the $6 million raised.
