Proposed Marijuana Law for Oregon, USA

I'd like to propose a marijuana law that can and should be passed through Oregon's initiative process. Now, even if a state law were passed "LEGALIZING" marijuana, the Federal Courts would destroy it: marijuana is illegal because of Federal law. But the people of Oregon CAN choose how to use their own money and resources.
We can ban the use of state, county or city money or personnel to enforce the illegal status of marijuana. Nobody in our state, except Federal agents, could punish or incarcerate anyone for using or selling any form of pure marijuana. This is politically savvy as well because it could be promoted primarily as saving and generating tax-payer money, and absolutely NOT "legalizing" marijuana.
The Federal government would be helpless to block this law, which would also expand Oregon's marijuana economy(creating lots of jobs,) and make that economy safer and more positive.
I don't have the health or legal expertise to personally take on this project, so I'm inviting anyone who does to spear-head it.
