“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.”
“"Members" of MPP are eligible to vote in the once-every-three-years election of the sole member-elected director of the board.”
“In 2015, MPP had five affiliates -- the "Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol" in Arizona, Maine, and Massachusetts; "Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol" in Nevada; and "MPP of California". All five were simply ballot-initiative committees registered with five state governments; as such, these committees did not have an IRS tax status. All five exist for the purpose of ending marijuana prohibition in their respective states via five ballot initiatives in November 2016.”
“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.”
“MPP's documents are maintained in the organization's headquarters in the District of Columbia, and 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.”
“We noticed a few numbers looked inaccurate compared to our 2014 filing and took the steps necessary to correct them.”
“In 2014, MPP legalized marijuana in Alaska, legalized medical marijuana in Minnesota, and completed the signature drive to place a legalization initiative on the November 2016 ballot in Nevada. As such, the expenses for these major projects weren't prominent for MPP in 2015.”
“Of the $40,518, $7,593 of this is from the depreciation of computers and other office equipment, the remaining 32,925 just the typical small "fudge factor" that must be interested here, so that all the numbers add up correctly.”
“The adjustment for MPP is simply a "fudge factor" de minimis difference between our expense accounting for the 990 and the accountant's audit.”

| IRS990/MissionDesc | 0 | 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. |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc | 0 | FEDERAL LOBBYING: MPP lobbied Congress to end the federal prohibition of both medical marijuana and marijuana generally, solve the banking problem, fix the "280e" tax issue, allow veterans and their Veterans Affairs physicians to participate in state medical-marijuana programs, and end the federal government's interference with the D.C. government regulating marijuana locally. |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 1 | MASSACHUSETTS LEGALIZATION INITIATIVE: MPP completed the first of two phases of a signature drive to place a marijuana-legalization initiative on the statewide ballot in Massachusetts in November 2016. (www.RegulateMassachusetts.org) |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 2 | TEXAS LOBBYING: MPP lobbied the Texas Legislature to pass a bill to impose civil instead of criminal penalties for marijuana possession; the House Criminal Jurisprudence Committee passed the bill, but the legislature adjourned before the bill could pass through the House Calendars Committee (where the bill would have passed) and onto the House floor. Also during the 2015 legislative session, the House Criminal Jurisprudence Committee passed a bill to remove marijuana from the criminal statutes in an attempt to treat marijuana like jalapenos. Finally, the Texas Legislature and Gov. Greg Abbott (R) enacted a law that sought to make low-grade marijuana available to epilepsy patients, although the law is fatally flawed. (www.TexasMarijuanaPolicy.org) |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 3 | VERMONT LOBBYING: MPP continued to lay the groundwork in Vermont to pass legislation to legalize marijuana, with the intent of enacting such legislation into law in 2016 or 2017. (www.RegulateVermont.org) |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 4 | RHODE ISLAND LOBBYING: MPP's work in Rhode Island paralleled MPP's work in Vermont, with the goal of legalizing marijuana in 2016 or 2017. (www.regulateRI.com) |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 5 | ILLINOIS LOBBYING: MPP succeeded at passing a bill to decriminalize marijuana possession in Illinois with a 62-53 vote in the House and a 37-19 vote in the Senate. Unfortunately, Gov. Bruce Rauner (R) issued an "amendatory veto" in August, which provided guidance for how the Democrat-controlled legislature should amend the bill so that it could become law in 2016. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 6 | PENNSYLVANIA LOBBYING: MPP worked with a coalition of parents -- including mothers with children who suffer from chronic seizures -- to lobby the Pennsylvania Legislature to legalize medical marijuana. The state Senate passed the bill with a 40-7 vote, but the bill stalled in the House. Gov. Tom Wolf (D) said that he would sign any such bill. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 7 | PUBLIC EDUCATION: MPP staffers spent time daily on informing the public of the harms of marijuana prohibition, mostly through the use of mainstream and online media outlets. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 8 | CALIFORNIA LEGALIZATION INITIATIVE: MPP worked with allies in California, with the goal of passing a statewide ballot initiative to legalize marijuana in November 2016. (www.RegulateCalifornia.com) |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 9 | NEW HAMPSHIRE LOBBYING: MPP lobbied the New Hampshire Legislature to decriminalize marijuana possession, succeeding at passing the bill with a 297-67 vote in the House, but the bill was blocked in the Senate. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 10 | CONFERENCES AND COALITION BUILDING: As always, various MPP staffers spent some time at conferences and smaller meetings, for the purpose of building the team of people who are working to legalize marijuana in the United States. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 11 | ALASKA IMPLEMENTATION: On the heels of MPP's landmark victory in Alaska in November 2014 -- when 53% of Alaska voters passed MPP's ballot measure to tax and regulate marijuana like alcohol -- MPP worked with Alaska's legislature, Alaska's executive branch, and a handful of city councils to implement the new law. This effort exceeded expectations, setting the stage for Alaska to become the first place in the U.S. to allow for the on-site consumption of marijuana by adults 21 and older in retail establishments; this is expected to occur in the fall of 2016. (www.RegulateMarijuanaInAlaska.org) |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 12 | NEVADA LEGALIZATION INITIATIVE: After MPP qualified its marijuana-legalization initiative for Nevada's November 2016 ballot in November 2014 -- fully 24 months before Election Day -- MPP maintained a low-level presence in Nevada, with the intent of ramping up in 2016. (www.RegulateMarijuanaInNevada.org) |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 13 | DELAWARE LOBBYING: MPP successfully lobbied the Delaware government to decriminalize marijuana possession, succeeding when Gov. Jack Markell (D) signed the bill into law in June. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 14 | MARYLAND LOBBYING: MPP lobbied the Maryland Legislature to legalize marijuana. This victory isn't expected to happen until 2017 or 2018. MPP also lobbied to decriminalize marijuana paraphernalia; the legislature passed this measure, which was then vetoed by Gov. Larry Hogan (R), setting up the legislature for a likely override of the veto in early 2016. (www.MarylandCannabisPolicy.org) |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 15 | COLORADO, HAWAII, MINNESOTA, AND NEW YORK LOBBYING: MPP dedicated a small amount of staff time on (1) protecting the marijuana-legalization law that MPP passed in Colorado in November 2012; (2) expanding the medical-marijuana law in Hawaii to allow for large-scale cultivation and retail sales; and (3) implementing the medical-marijuana laws that Minnesota and New York both enacted in 2014. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 16 | DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA LOBBYING: MPP preliminarily lobbied the D.C. government to regulate marijuana like alcohol locally, at such time that Congress removes the rider in the federal spending bill that's preventing the D.C. government from doing so. (This would be an expansion of the local initiative that 70% of D.C. voters passed in November 2014; that law legalized the possession and home cultivation of marijuana, but not marijuana sales or taxation.) |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 17 | "MARIJUANA POLICY PROJECT PAC" ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES: MPP's federal Political Action Committee mostly exists to support good federal candidates, but the PAC sometimes also donates to state-level candidates. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 18 | DEPRECIATION: This was simply the annual depreciation of computers and other office equipment. |
