​

Join us to stop federal agents from arresting AIDS and cancer patients who use marijuana to relieve their pain and suffering. The Alliance and other drug policy reform groups have chosen Friday, June 4th for a National Day of Action on Medical Marijuana. We need you to distribute brochures outside the district offices of Members of Congress who oppose medical marijuana.​

The Drug Policy Alliance has been working hard to get medical marijuana legislation passed through Congress. Last year 152 Members of Congress voted to prohibit the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) from spending any money to undermine state medical marijuana laws. This vote was more than expected but still 66 votes short of what we needed to win. We need to persuade Members of Congress who voted no last year to vote yes this year. This is where you come in.

Will you join hundreds of volunteers across the country in distributing flyers Friday, June 4? We need to let Members of Congress know that if they vote to send AIDS and cancer patients to jail, we’re going to take the fight to their backyard!
