Statewide Ballot Efforts To Repeal Marijuana Legalization
ARIZONA: BALLOT INITIATIVE TO REPEAL LEGALIZATION“Sensible Marijuana Policy Act for Arizona”
On December 17, 2025, American Encore was approved to begin gathering signatures. The initiative would repeal the majority of laws and regulations enacted by Proposition 207, which legalized the possession and use of adult-use marijuana after 60% voters approved the measure in 2020.

House Joint Resolution 4
This joint resolution proposes an amendment to the Idaho State Constitution exclusively granting the legislature the power to legalize various activities related to psychoactive substances, including marijuana. Specifically, the amendment would prevent local governments, ballot initiatives, or other entities from legalizing the growing, producing, manufacturing, transporting, selling, delivering, dispensing, administering, prescribing, distributing, possessing, or use of such substances without direct legislative approval. The resolution mandates that this question be submitted to Idaho voters at the next general election, asking whether they support giving the legislature sole authority over the legalization of these substances:
“Shall Section 26, Article III of the Constitution of the State of Idaho be amended to provide that only the Idaho Legislature shall have power and authority to legalize the growing, producing, manufacturing, transporting, selling, delivering, dispensing, administering, prescribing, distributing, possessing, or using of marijuana, narcotics, or other psychoactive substances?”
“An Act to Amend the Cannabis Legalization Act and the Maine Medical Use of Cannabis Act”
Proponents behind a campaign to repeal key provisions of the state’s voter-approved adult-use marijuana legalization law have failed to collect the necessary signatures to place the measure on the November 2026 ballot. The effort, which thus far has been solely funded by out-of-state dark money from a single prohibitionist group, seeks to recriminalize the home-cultivation of small amounts of cannabis and shut down the state’s regulated adult-use cannabis industry. It is anticipated that the group behind Maine’s repeal effort will now aim to qualify the measure for the 2027 ballot. According to the group’s mid-January campaign finance filing with the state Ethics Commission, it has over $1.5 million in campaign contributions still available.

REPEAL PETITION ORGANIZATION REGISTRATION
A proposal (An Act to Restore a Sensible Marijuana Policy) repealing key elements of Massachusetts’ voter-approved marijuana legalization has qualified for the November ballot. State officials rejected claims that proponents fraudulently gathered signatures. A lawsuit arguing that the initiative’s language violated the state’s single subject requirements was rejected by the state Supreme Court.
Financing for the campaign has come entirely from a single out-of-state special interest group.
