Please join us for a NORML benefit party to help support a new NORML
West Coast office in Oakland, the home of Measure Z, California's
pioneering initiative for legalized adult use of cannabis.

The politics of marijuana law reform in California are changing every
day, with some real progress being made. However, as the recent raids
of several patient support groups in San Diego reminded us, progress
seldom occurs without some setbacks, and our opponents will continue
to try to undermine the will of the voters in California who
overwhelmingly approved Prop. 215 in 1996.

It is our responsibility to fight these efforts in every way
possible, and to do more: we need to once again find our voice for
the proposition that no one should be treated as a criminal because
of their personal use of marijuana, regardless of whether it is for
medical use or for personal enjoyment.

Since 1970, NORML has provided a voice in the public policy debates
for marijuana smokers. We are the marijuana smokers lobby in America
and we are proud to say: There is absolutely nothing wrong with the
responsible use of marijuana by adults, and it should be of no
interest or concern to the government. There is nothing wrong with
adults smoking pot.

If you agree with NORML, please attend our upcoming party in Oakland
and help us change these laws once and for all. If you cannot attend
in person, please consider making a special contribution now to help
NORML move the marijuana legalization agenda forward in California
and all across the country.

We'll have live music, catered food, and an open bar. Bring a couple
of friends and join us for a fun-filled evening and help raise funds
for the NORML program in California.

We hope to see you at the Oakland Sailboat House on Friday night, February 3.

All proceeds go to NORML & Cal NORML -
