Pain
Treatment
Advocates
to
March
on
Washington
this
April,
Call
for
Congressional
Hearings
on
the
DEA's
War
on
Doctors
1/2/04
Earlier this week, The Washington
Post ran an important story on the under-treatment pain and law enforcement
agencies' pogrom against doctors who prescribe opiates that is causing
it (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A37015-2003Dec28.html).
Many of the same advocates
who have succeeded in drawing attention to this problem are gathering from
April 18-20 in Washington, DC, to call for Congressional hearings on the
DEA war on doctors, pharmacists and pain patients. We hope that those
of you who are able will attend and participate in "America's In Pain!"
-- MARCH ON WASHINGTON -- "Silent No More!"
