On December 10th, 2013 the San Jose City council started a process to come up with their own regulations and began to enforce their stance that "all dispensaries are illegal."

"The last time the city proposed regulations we were forced to do a referendum," said Dave Hodges, Proponent & Founder of A2C2- the All American Cannabis Club." We must put reasonable regulations in place to stop the city council from creating something we cannot live with."

The supporters of MMRSJ are actively working to collect 30,000 signatures by April 20th, 2014. Signature gathering began February 25th at the Miley Cyrus Bangerz Tour in San Jose. It is supported by the Silicon Valley Cannabis Coalition, Americans for Policy Reform, Control & Regulate San Jose and a majority of cannabis clubs in San Jose.
