Hi all - If you subscribe to Nov-Coalition, NORML, Drug Policy Alliane, ALCU or any other pubs against the war on drugs, then hopefully you have already signed this...if not, please do so ASAP...thank you!
I havent seen those drug commercials in awhile, I thought they smartened up and decided to can them...guess they were just taking time out to create more - so stupid if you ask me!

What would you do if Congress were about to approve a billion dollars' worth of advertising designed to defeat marijuana policy reform legislation and initiatives?
Well, the U.S. House of Representative is about to do this -- in a committee vote on Thursday, May 22 -- and we hope that you will immediately take action to stop this attempt to undermine the democratic process.
Congress is acting right now to push the powers of the White House drug czar past the point of no return. Along with another five years and another billion dollars for the National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign, Congress wants to give the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy the power to use the campaign for "partisan political purposes" to "oppose any attempt to legalize [marijuana]"!
If you want to prevent President Bush from spending up to a billion dollars in advertising against the Marijuana Policy Project's state campaigns for medical marijuana and general marijuana policy reform, please send a pre-written letter to your U.S. representative at http://www.mpp.org/Stop_the_Provision . This link will take you directly to a page where you will enter your name and address. Then, you will just need to select a letter and hit send.
The anti-drug ads have already tried to convince the American people that marijuana is the most harmful drug available and that marijuana use leads to gun violence, date rape, teen pregnancy, auto accidents, gang killings, and terrorism. If Congress gets its way, the anti-drug
ads -- funded with a billion tax dollars -- will now be telling
citizens how to vote!
Help the Marijuana Policy Project keep Drug Czar John Walters from using his ads to meddle in the democratic reform of marijuana laws. Visit http://www.mpp.org/Stop_the_Provision to send a pre-written fax to your U.S. representative today.
Thank you for supporting us in this effort. With your help, we will continue our "War on Drug Czar" until he's out of the picture --
excommunicated from the federal government forever.
