i put this in the pub so more people will see it
"Dear DRCNet supporter:
Since early last month we have been alerting our readers about an upcoming medical marijuana vote in the US House of Representatives, the Hinchey/Rohrabacher amendment to forbid the US Department of Justice from using its resources to interfere with state medical marijuana laws. This amendment would be consistent with a recent ruling by the US 9th Circuit Court which found that DOJ interference with state medical marijuana laws is unconstitutional.
Our sources on Capitol Hill have informed us that the vote will take place THIS WEEK, possibly even TODAY or TOMORROW. Please take a few moments right now to visit http://stopthedrugwar.org/medicalmarijuana/ and e-mail your US Representative to express your support for the Hinchey/Rohrabacher amendment. When you are done, please call the same US Rep. on the phone to increase your impact even further -- you can use the Congressional Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 -- and e-mail us at alert-feedback@drcnet.org to let us know you've made your phone call and to tell us if you've learned anything of potential value to the lobbying effort.
A sign of how important this vote is, is that a national anti-drug organization, the Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America, has sent an alert to their membership, asking them to write and call Congress in opposition to the Hinchey/Rohrabacher amendment. Your help is needed to make up for their phone calls and push the balance to our side. So again, please visit http://stopthedrugwar.org/medicalmarijuana/ to take action now!
Thank you for helping DRCNet build support for medical marijuana and this important vote. Please tell your friends and anyone else you know who might be willing to help. Sincerely,
David Borden, Executive Director StoptheDrugWar.org: the Drug Reform Coordination Network Washington, DC"
