The No on Prop 205 campaign said 'sorry, but not sorry.'  
 
On Monday morning, the Yes on 205 campaign distributed a letter from three Colorado lawmakers asking the 'No' campaign to take down recent advertisements regarding education funding, or the alleged lack thereof, from legalized recreational marijuana.
 
"The facts about Colorado’s experiment with legalized marijuana remain the same-- it has been a disaster and Arizona voters should heed Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper’s advice and wait before making the same mistake Colorado did,” said Adam Deguire, campaign manager for the No on Prop 205 committee.
 
The No on Prop 205 campaign penned its own letter, accusing the Colorado lawmakers of only taking an interest in the initiative because they accepted campaign money from the marijuana industry.
