The campaign to decriminalize psychedelic mushrooms in Denver said it has more than enough signatures to make the May municipal ballot and will turn them into the elections office following a rally outside the Capitol Monday afternoon.
Kevin Matthews, the campaign director for Denver for Psilocybin, said the group has gathered more than 8,000 signatures. The elections office has 25 days to verify they have collected the 4,729 valid signatures needed to make the May 2019 municipal ballot.
This is a chance for Denver and Colorado to be an example for the rest of the country, Matthews said.

These drugs are powerful and may literally change a person. Most therapeutic drugs help reverse symptoms of disorders, but psychedelics, in addition to ameliorating symptoms, may actually change a persons personality and views about the purpose of life. The drugs induce a mystical trip, which can be powerful and life changing. Several investigators who are so passionate about these drugs changed career directions as a result of their personal experiences with them. This power of psychedelics appears to be beyond what we see with current medications. For severely ill individuals, it is certainly possible that the effects can be therapeutic and lifesaving. The benefits may outweigh the risks for such severely ill persons. But do the benefits outweigh the risks in mildly ill persons or in individuals who are healthy but want to experience the mind-expanding effects of these drugs?
