DRCNet
Needs
Your
Help
10/09/98
With our number of subscribers
approaching 7,200 and our staffing situation finally coming together, DRCNet
needs your support and participation now more than ever to help build DRCNet
and the movement to new heights. We are soon embarking on a major
effort to recruit thousands of paying members and tens of thousands of
e-mail subscribers, to build this network into a major force for social
change. Your membership dues or additional donation will enable us
to increase the size and impact of our outreach efforts; and even more,
will give our major donors the confidence to invest further in the organization.
And your letters written to Congress, legislatures and the media, and other
actions taken in response to our action alerts, reported to us at [email protected],
will send a message to politicians that business as usual isn't going to
work anymore in drug policy, and that they had better start legislating
more rationally or will face mounting criticism of their failing drug war.
Donate $35 or more to DRCNet,
and you will receive a free copy of "Shattered Lives, Portraits from America's
Drug War," the new photojournalistic volume depicting the human side of
our tragic laws and providing an overview of the basic issues at stake.
(Visit http://www.hr95.org to see more
of what this important new book is about.) To donate, use our form
at https://www.drcnet.org/cgi-shl/drcreg.cgi
(encrypted transmission, especially for credit card donations), or http://www.drcnet.org/cgi-shl/drcreg.cgi
(no encryption, recommended you print it out and mail in with a check),
or just send your check or money order to: DRCNet, 2000 P St., NW, Suite
615, Washington, DC 20036. Please note that contributions to DRCNet
are not tax-deductible. If you wish to contribute beyond the basic
membership dues and are looking to make a deductible gift, you can support
our educational work through a tax-deductible donation to the DRCNet Foundation.

sales tax added for District of Columbia residents.)
