Marijuana Policy Project AlertJune 18, 2009

Dear Tokecrazy:
Today, Congressman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) introduced a bill in the U.S. House of Representatives to eliminate all federal penalties for marijuana possession. This came only one week after he also introduced a bill to protect medical marijuana patients.
Would you please take one minute to ask your U.S. representative to support these two bills? MPP's easy online action center makes it simple — just enter your name and contact info, and we'll do the rest.
The Personal Use of Marijuana by Responsible Adults Act of 2009 would eliminate the threat of federal arrest and prison for the possession of up to 3.5 ounces of marijuana and the not-for-profit transfer of an ounce of marijuana — nationwide.
What's more, last week Congressman Frank introduced the Medical Marijuana Patient Protection Act, which would allow states to protect medical marijuana patients from arrest and jail without federal interference, as well as allow pharmacies to dispense marijuana to patients with a doctor's recommendation. You can take action on this bill here.
MPP has worked closely with Congressman Frank's staff in past months, helping to craft both pieces of legislation and build political support for the proposals on Capitol Hill.
Now members of Congress need to hear from their constituents who want to see it passed — that means you! It takes only a minute or two to use MPP's online action system to send a quick note to your member of the House, so would you please send your letter right now?

Eliminate threat of federal arrest and prison for marijuana possession
Protect medical marijuana patients nationwide

Thank you so much for your help.
Sincerely,

Rob Kampia

THANKS Tokecrazy and Jangel, action taken.

I hereby challenge all members of GreenPassion.org to meet or beat my donation of $40 to the Marijuana Policy Project. Let’s give this a boost, folks. The longer we can keep this momentum going, the better our chances of making marijuana legal and regulated.
Peace,

Tex

Thanks for the links, I submitted my letters for both and forwarded the links to my friends. I'm going to tell everyone I know about this so we can finally get this passed.
