Good news, everyone!
"In May of 2019, a bill was signed into law by Colorado state governor Jared Polis that effectively reclassifies personal possession of schedule 1 and 2 narcotics from a felony to a misdemeanor. The bill, known as HB19-1263, officially went into effect at the beginning of March, 2020.
HB19-1263 renders the punishment for personal possession of controlled substances like DMT, LSD, cocaine, and more much less severe. Coloradans can no longer be jailed for these offenses (up to the limit of four grams), and penalties and fines for that possession are reduced significantly.
The implications of those reduced penalties are significant. A felony is a rather severe mark on one's criminal record, and not receiving that mark for possession of narcotics can significantly help one out in the long run with job prospects, future opportunities, family and personal life, and more.
