TECHNICAL TRAVAILS:
Due to some continuing server trouble, our alert of Wednesday night didn't
make it through until tonight, except to about 400 of you. We apologize
for the two posts in one night, and to the 400 of you who received two
copies of the alert. We are close to having these problems resolved, and
thank you for bearing with us in the meantime.
ALERT! DRCNet's 501(c)(4)
lobbying entity is running desperately short of funds. This won't threaten
our educational programs, like the DRCNN radio show and most of the articles
in the Week Online, which are funded mainly by grants and major gifts to
our 501(c)(3) educational foundation. But it will prevent us from issuing
important legislative alerts and from pursuing some of our key projects,
including the Higher Education Act reform project (see http://www.u-net.org),
unless members like yourselves come through.
To donate, visit our online
registration form at http://www.drcnet.org/drcreg.html
to print out a form to mail in or submit your credit card info. Or just

DC 20036. Donations to the Drug Reform Coordination Network are not tax-deductible.
