Consequences of Prohibition
Politics & Advocacy
Wednesday, September 15, was a National Call-In Day supporting S. 714, Sen. Jim Webb's bill establishing a National Criminal Justice Commission to do a full, top-to-bottom study of the wreck that is the US criminal justice system. But the work has just begun! If you haven't already, please call your two US senators to urge their support for this important and historic bill. The House of Representatives has already passed their version of the commission bill, so if the Senate passes S. 714 it will be almost law!
You can reach your two US senators (or find out who they are) by calling the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121. You can also look up their numbers using your zip code, and download a set of talking points, at a page set up by the group Families Against Mandatory Minimums, available here. (If you are not from the United States, please forward this to drug policy and justice reform supporters you know who are.)
Thank you for taking action for JUSTICE. Please let us know if you get any good feedback from your senators' staff members that we should know about.

Does it make sense to call
Does it make sense to call this a free country, when we have the largest percentage population of NOT FREE citizens in the world?
