Act Now to Protect Medical Cannabis Patients: Support Needed for HR 5842

by Americans for Safe Access (list)
Act Now to Protect Medical Cannabis Patients:
Tell Your U.S. Representative to Support HR 5842!
Dear ASA Supporter,

Last month, Representative Barney Frank (D-MA) and a small bi-partisan
coalition of Members of Congress introduced H.R. 5842, the Medical Marijuana
Patient Protection Act. The legislation will help protect individuals who use
or provide medical cannabis in accordance with their state law.

Visit http://www.AmericansforSafeAccess.org/PatientProtectionAct to take
action now!

If passed, this important legislation would, among other things, reschedule
marijuana from a Schedule I to Schedule II drug according the Controlled
Substances Act and provide clearer protections for qualified patients, their
caregivers, and safe-access sites authorized by state or local law. Take action
now to protect patients and their caregivers
http://www.AmericansforSafeAccess.org/PatientProtectionAct!

Visit http://www.AmericansforSafeAccess.org/PatientProtectionAct to write
Congress now! Urge your U.S. Representative to support the Patient Protection
Act!

Thanks you for supporting ASA and our efforts to secure safe access for medical
cannabis patients. Please forward this message to friends, co-workers, and
family members to encourage them to join you in this statewide movement to
protect safe access!

Sincerely,

Sonnet Seeborg Gabbard
Field Coordinator
