Greg Lopez on Drugs

 

 


Marijuana is an addictive drug and not safe

Legalized marijuana is a danger to teens and has caused tremendous harm to certain individuals in our society. As Governor, I will personally work alongside Smart Colorado to expose the perils of pot use. The Lopez Administration will remind the public that we must stop calling it "recreational" marijuana but call it what it truly is, which is "retail" marijuana. When young developing minds hear the word "recreational" they lose sight that it is an addictive drug and not safe.
