Brian Vicente
Brian Vicente is an American attorney and marijuana rights advocate. He is a partner and founding member of Vicente Sederberg, LLC and serves as executive director of Sensible Colorado.
Vicente was one of the primary authors of Colorado Amendment 64[1] and was co-director of the successful ‘Yes on 64’ campaign in 2012,[2] which resulted in Colorado becoming the first state to make the possession, use, and regulated distribution of marijuana legal for adults. Vicente assisted the government of Uruguay with adopting a fully regulated adult marijuana market and he serves as a formal advisor on marijuana policy to local, state, and national governments. Having conducted over 1000 marijuana related media interviews, Brian has been called “the industry's de facto spokesman”.[3]
