The Beginning of the End

You Can Make a Difference

Dear friends,

This is the beginning of the end of marijuana prohibition.

Measures to tax and regulate marijuana have emerged in California, Washington, and New Hampshire, and we can build support for these and other reform efforts by thanking the forward-thinking legislators who are working for better marijuana policies.

New polling shows that nearly half the nation believes marijuana should be legal.  Yet many legislators still shrink from opposing prohibition for fear of losing popular support. 

You and I need to show legislators that backing marijuana reform is no longer a political risk.  If enough of us speak out, we can show lawmakers that there is a groundswell of support for reform throughout the country. 

Right now, we can prove just how big our movement is by thanking legislators who are sponsoring tax and regulate legislation.

Our movement has new champions working to fix our backwards marijuana policies and open up the discourse.  Join me in sending a note of thanks to the California, Washington, and New Hampshire lawmakers who are promoting smarter marijuana policy.

Let's send the message that voters all across the country want marijuana reform.

Sincerely,

Bill Piper
