As several states voted to legalize marijuana on Tuesday, Oregon remained ahead of the curve by becoming the first in US history to decriminalize possession of hard drugs. 

Oregon measure 110 passed with 58.5% of the vote, according to Decision Desk HQ.

It reclassifies personal possession of heroin, cocaine, and LSD, from misdemeanors or felonies to violations punishable with a $100 fine. 

Peter Zuckerman, campaign manager foe Measure 110, told The Oregonian that their success was "a big step forward." 

"Today is a huge day of celebration but the work is not over and we have a lot more work to do to win a better system for everybody," he said.

In addition to decriminalizing some drugs, the measure also establishes statewide drug recovery services that are partially funded by the state's marijuana tax. 

The law madnates the Oregon Health Authority to establish a council to distribute funds and oversee the implementation of the recovery centers. The Secretary of State is required to audit the council biennially.

A leading opponent to the measure, Jim O'Rourke, told the Oregonian that the measure won't be successful at providing more beds for those who need them. 

"We are disappointed that Oregon voters have been misled into decriminalizing heroin, meth, cocaine, oxycodone," he said. "Both sides need to come together with the governor and Legislature and give the voters what they really intended -- saving lives and more treatment beds."
