Part III
Statement of Program Service Accomplishments
Check if Schedule O contains a response or note to any line in this Part III ..............
1
Briefly describe the organization’s mission: MPP's mission is to regulate marijuana similarly to alcohol in the United States. To this end, MPP pursues four strategies: (1) increase public support for non-punitive, non-coercive marijuana policies; (2) identify and activate supporters of non-punitive, non-coercive marijuana policies; (3) change state laws to reduce or eliminate penalties for the medical and non-medical use of marijuana; and (4) gain influence in Congress.
2
Did the organization undertake any significant program services during the year which were not listed on
the prior Form 990 or 990-EZ? ......................
If "Yes," describe these new services on Schedule O.
3
Did the organization cease conducting, or make significant changes in how it conducts, any program services? ............................
If "Yes," describe these changes on Schedule O.
4
Describe the organization’s program service accomplishments for each of its three largest program services, as measured by expenses. Section 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) organizations are required to report the amount of grants and allocations to others, the total expenses, and revenue, if any, for each program service reported.
4a (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 173,810 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
MONITORING ALL STATE LEGISLATURES, AND LOBBYING NON-TARGETED STATE LEGISLATURES: MPP monitored all marijuana-related bills in the 50 states and the District of Columbia, published information on these bills on 51 state Web pages, issued state-specific email alerts to MPP's email subscribers in each state, and assisted with the drafting of legislation in a handful of states. And on the margins, MPP (1) lobbied the D.C. city council to pass a bill to decriminalize the possession of marijuana, (2) continued to pressure the New York Legislature to pass a medical marijuana bill, and (3) served as a resource for the Montana Legislature.
4b (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 142,204 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
ALASKA BALLOT INITIATIVE: MPP formed a ballot-initiative committee, the Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol, for the purpose of passing a law in Alaska that's similar to the law that MPP passed in Colorado in November 2012. In 2013, CRMLA collected a sufficient number of signatures from registered voters, thereby qualifying the initiative for the statewide ballot in Alaska in August or November of 2014.
4c (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 103,178 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
FEDERAL LOBBYING: MPP monitored all marijuana-related bills in Congress, specifically lobbying to build support for a bill (H.R. 1523) in the U.S. House of Representatives that would end marijuana prohibition on the federal level. By the end of 2013, this bill -- which was introduced by U.S. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA), had attracted 20 cosponsors, which was a larger number than most people had imagined would be possible.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 80,997 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
COLORADO LOBBYING: In the wake of MPP's 2012 campaign that succeeded at regulating marijuana like alcohol in Colorado, MPP continued the fight in 2013 by lobbying the Colorado Legislature and city governments to implement fairly the initiative that 55% of Colorado voters had passed. As expected, many city governments didn't immediately take action, but the governor's task force, the state legislature, the Denver city council, and other city councils faithfully implemented the will of the voters, setting the stage for marijuana to be sold to people 21 and older starting on January 1, 2014.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 47,883 including grants of $ 12,000 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
ILLINOIS LOBBYING: After 11 years of lobbying in Springfield, MPP finally enacted a medical-marijuana bill in Illinois in 2013. The final bill passed the state House with a 61-57 vote, passed the state Senate by a 35-21 vote, and was signed by Gov. Pat Quinn (D) on August 1. As a result, Illinois became the 20th state to legalize medical marijuana.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 36,814 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
MAINE BALLOT INITIATIVE: MPP maintained a full-time presence in Maine (with an office outside of Portland), for the purpose of passing a statewide ballot initiative in November 2016. In addition to lobbying the state legislature, building a coalition of opinion leaders, and generating a steady trickle of positive media coverage, MPP was instrumental in passing a local ballot initiative in Portland in November 2013 that removed local penalties for marijuana possession. The local initiative, which received 67% of the vote, received an impressive bout of positive news coverage nationally.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 36,754 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
NEW HAMPSHIRE LOBBYING: After 11 years of lobbying in Concord, MPP finally enacted a medical-marijuana bill in New Hampshire in 2013. The final bill passed the state House with a 284-66 vote, passed the state Senate by a 18-6 vote, and was signed by Gov. Maggie Hassan (D) on July 23. As a result, New Hampshire became the 19th state to legalize medical marijuana.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 35,505 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
PUBLIC EDUCATION: MPP educated the public about the need to reform our nation's marijuana laws via MPP's Web site and other online properties, mainstream media coverage and blog posts, and personal communications with people who contacted the MPP office.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 23,326 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
MARYLAND LOBBYING: Building upon MPP's successes in Maryland in 2003 and 2011, MPP continued to lobby the Maryland Legislature in 2013, increasing support for a pair of bills to legalize medical marijuana and to decriminalize marijuana possession.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 22,780 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 17,509 )
NATIONAL CANNABIS INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION: In the fall of 2010, three current and former MPP staffers (Rob Kampia, Steve Fox, and Aaron Smith) formed NCIA, which serves as the national trade association for marijuana-related businesses. In 2013, MPP's office on Capitol Hill served as the hub for NCIA's presence in Washington, D.C. Most of MPP's expenses relating to NCIA -- specifically, $17,509 -- were reimbursed by NCIA.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 21,619 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
MINNESOTA LOBBYING: Recovering from the veto of MPP's medical-marijuana bill in 2009, MPP reinvigorated its lobbying effort in St. Paul, with the hope of escaping another veto (by a new governor) in 2014.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 21,437 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
RHODE ISLAND LOBBYING: MPP succeeded at passing a marijuana-decriminalization bill through the Rhode Island Legislature in 2012; the bill took effect in April 2013. In addition, MPP lobbied the state legislature to make marijuana legal for adults aged 21 and older, similar to the Colorado law that MPP passed in November 2012; this lobbying campaign in Rhode Island is expected to last until at least 2015.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 20,519 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
VERMONT LOBBYING: MPP decriminalized the possession of marijuana via the Vermont Legislature, and the bill was signed into law by Gov. Peter Shumlin (D). As a result, Vermont now has a law that no longer sentences people to jail if they're apprehended with a small amount of marijuana for personal use.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 10,498 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
CALIFORNIA LOBBYING: MPP assisted a large coalition in a lobbying effort to pass legislation in Sacramento to license medical-marijuana businesses in California. Whether or not this bill passes, MPP is committed to passing a statewide initiative to regulate marijuana like alcohol in November 2016.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 7,214 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
MICHIGAN LOBBYING: MPP conducted a low-level, long-distance lobbying effort to oppose legislation that would have undermined the medical-marijuana initiative that MPP enacted in Michigan in November 2008, as well as to support legislation to legalize medical marijuana dispensaries. None of these bills passed in 2013.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 7,166 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
WEST VIRGINIA LOBBYING: MPP launched the beginning of a multi-year lobbying effort, for the purpose of legalizing medical marijuana through the West Virginia Legislature sometime between 2015 and 2017.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 7,131 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
NEVADA BALLOT INITIATIVE: In November 2002 and again in November 2006, MPP attempted to pass statewide ballot initiatives to regulate marijuana like alcohol in Nevada, failing with 39% and 44% of the vote, respectively. (In addition, MPP failed to place similar measures on the ballot in 2004 and 2010.) In 2013, MPP arose for a fifth time in the hopes of finally passing a similar statewide ballot initiative; the new signature drive will take place in 2014, and the vote will take place in November 2016.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 3,807 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
OREGON BALLOT INITIATIVE: MPP dipped its toe into the water in Oregon, with the idea of regulating marijuana like alcohol in Oregon in a few years. Unfortunately, when local leaders made it clear that they intended to place an initiative on the November 2014 ballot, MPP Foundation withdrew from the state, deeming that date probably (but not definitely) too soon for passage.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 3,374 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE: MPP maintained its "MPP Political Action Committee", which is the primary source of political donations to federal and state candidates who support reforming our nation's marijuana laws. (This PAC has its own expenditures and revenues; this information can be found at the Federal Election Commission.)
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 3,306 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
DELAWARE LOBBYING: After legalizing medical marijuana in Delaware in 2011, MPP maintained a low-level lobbying program in Dover in 2013, with the goal of ensuring that at least three medical-marijuana dispensaries are permitted to open in the state.

Return Reference Explanation
Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 Because MPP issues so few grants, the "procedure" for issuing and then monitoring grants is simply an outgrowth of the MPP staff working day-to-day with grantees before/during their grant periods, with the understanding that the grantees aren't pseudo employees but rather autonomous organizations and individuals.

Return Reference Explanation
Form 990, Part III, Line 2 In 2013, MPP launched a signature drive in Alaska to place an initiative to regulate marijuana like alcohol on either the August or November 2014 ballot.
Form 990, Part III, Line 3 After legalizing marijuana in Colorado in November 2012, MPP spent a greatly reduced amount of money in Colorado in 2013 to implement the new state law.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 6 Anyone who donates $5 or more to MPP or the MPP PAC is considered to be a "member" of MPP for 365 days after the date of the donation.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7a "Members" of MPP are eligible to vote in the once-every-three-years election of the member-elected director of the board.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 10b In 2013, MPP had one affiliate -- the "Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol" in Alaska. This is simply a ballot-initiative committee, as registered with the Alaska state government; the committee does not have an IRS tax status. MPP employed one staffer in Anchorage, so the staffer simply abided by the rules and guidelines that MPP uses for MPP's national organization, which has employees scattered across the country. In addition, the finances of the Alaska campaign were managed by the MPP staff in the D.C. headquarters.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b This Form 990 was meticulously reviewed by the board's treasurer -- as well as submitted to the entire board of directors -- before it was filed with the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 MPP's documents are maintained in the organization's headquarters in the District of Columbia; the MPP staff mails the documents to interested persons via the U.S. Postal Service. In addition, MPP posts its Form 990 on the organization's Web site, as well as third-party Web sites. Finally, MPP also posts its annual report on its Web site.
Form 990, Part IX, Line 11g These expenses are broken into six categories -- a petitioning firm to place MPP's legalization initiative onto the Alaska ballot ($92,000), a consulting firm in Alaska ($36,390), a consultant in Minnesota who's working to pass a medical-marijuana bill through the Minnesota Legislature ($9,000), an hourly consultant in Chicago who helps MPP with mundane fundraising/database tasks ($8,465), a consultant who lays out various publications for MPP ($1,910), and temps who stuff envelopes in MPP's D.C. headquarters ($1,386).
Form 990, Part XI, Line 9 The figure of $644 is just a "fudge factor" so that the figures in Part XI add up correctly.

Return Reference Explanation
Schedule R, Part V, Line 1e Over the course of 2013, MPP repaid part of its debt to MPP Foundation, reducing MPP's debt from $1,100,000 to $400,000. In so doing, MPP also paid MPP Foundation $29,000 in interest (which is a 4.0% interest rate, computed monthly). Looking to the future, the goal is for MPP to repay the final $400,000 (plus interest) by the end of 2014.
Schedule R, Part V, Line 1n MPP and MPP Foundation shared office space and therefore a photocopier, fax machine, printers, phones, and other equipment. Regardless, each organization paid its own share of the rent, the purchase of equipment, and the rental of equipment.
Schedule R, Part V, Line 1o MPP and MPP Foundation shared numerous employees. Regardless, each organization paid its own share of the salaries, taxes, and benefits for each organization's "partial employees."
Schedule R, Part V, Line 1r MPP rented MPP Foundation's dues-paying membership list for $12,000, for the purpose of mailing a handful of fundraising mailings to MPP Foundation's donors. (The going rate for such rentals of other organizations' mailing lists is 10 cents/member, so MPP was entitled to rent 120,000 of MPP Foundation's members over the course of all MPP mailings in 2013; instead, MPP mailed to only 50,000 or so.) In addition, MPP paid $29,000 in interest to MPP Foundation for the loan that MPP Foundation issued to MPP in 2012.
