Hi, Lorenzo08- This is the effort getting organized, right here, you and me and the handful of other people who've responded to this post at the various sites I've posted it; people who realize that Mr. Fishy has a point: If voting's not a priority, nothing will change. Drop me another post with...

If 14.8 Million Americans use mj in the past month, that's about 5% of the population and a whole lot of voters. So why is it still illegal? Here's one premise: MJ isn't legal yet because politicians are afraid they'll lose votes if they're labeled as being "soft on drugs," and the REAL reason...

This thread is for people interested in taking some active, positive steps toward improving the mj laws. Please, on swearing or ranting; there are plenty of other forums for that. Join into this thread if you're ready (or thinking about getting ready) to do a little grass-roots work for...

Hi, Taylor Hey, your rep is Nancy Pelosi; you've hit the jackpot! She's the speaker of the House I think (?), so she has all kinds of extra influence. It's cool that you wrote to her; How did she respond to your email? My perspective is that actual letters really get their attention because they...

Outlaw gardening isn't going to get mj legalized. It just might, however, get you thrown into the slammer, where you'll meet all kinds of interesting people, and just possibly get to know them in.... ummmmm.... interesting ways. If you want to really make a difference, get inside a politician's...

One small step: Congress will soon vote on the Hinchey-Rohrbacher amendment, cutting off funding for Federal raids on medical mj programs. In 2007, 54 additional “Aye” votes would have been enough to end Federal funding for the raids. Each of us can help get those additional 54...

Hinchey-Rohrbacher (sp?) has been voted on each of the past few years. In 2007, it would have passed if only 54 additional Congresspersons had voted for it. Congress will soon vote on the Hinchey-Rohrbacher amendment, cutting off funding for Federal raids on medical mj programs. In 2007, 54...

So if there were a national permit allowing the legal cultivation of, say, a dozen plants, and people could grow their own, would that put the big-time growers out of business?

MJ will be legalized when a majority of the Congress, the Senate, and the President vote in favor of legalization. Any Federal law can be changed by a majority of Congresspersons (218), Senators (51), and the President (1). What if each interested person spent five minutes making sure his or her...
