House Medical Marijuana Vote Tuesday

According to Marijuana Policy Project, a critical vote in the House on medical marijuana will take place Tuesday. Take a moment to visit MPP or NORML and urge your Representatives to support the Hinchey-Rohrabacher medical marijuana amendment to the Justice and other departments' appropriations bill when it comes to the House floor on Tuesday, June 14. The Amendment would:

....prohibit the DOJ and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) from spending taxpayers' dollars for the purpose of pursuing "any criminal or civil penalty or remedy against any person for the production, distribution, or use of marijuana for medicinal purposes in a state that authorizes that production, distribution, or use."
