The Marijuana Policy Project's Medical Marijuana PAC will donate $10,000 -- the maximum permitted* -- to the presidential campaigns of Mitt Romney, John McCain, or Rudolph Giuliani if they can prove that any one of their statements about medical marijuana documented on this site are true. Since the candidates have thus far refused our challenge, we will now also donate an additional $10,000 to the charity of the candidate's choice, on top of the $10,000 campaign donation, if they can prove the veracity of their quotes. Click the individual candidate links for their actual statements and the claims they need to prove.
Applications for this cash award will be forwarded to an independent panel of scientists for evaluation. The Marijuana Policy Project will accept submissions for this challenge from January 15 to February 15, 2008. Review and adjudication may take up to 30 days.
One cash award is available per campaign.
Only individuals operating as official representatives of the campaigns of Mitt Romney, John McCain, or Rudolph Giuliani are eligible.
*$5,000 primary, $5,000 general
