Default Phone/Fax Action OCT.5.2004 - Reschedule Marijuana Now!

Phone/ Fax Slam to Tommy Thompson, Secretary of Health & Human Services - Tuesday, Oct 5
From: Hilary McQuie" | hilary@effective-action.net | Sunday October 3, 2004

As you know, Oct. 5, ASA is imploring HHS to do the right thing, and allow for the rescheduling of Marijuana. For those of you who cannot attend the Washington DC event, you can still join us by sending a fax and calling HHS On Tuesday, Oct. 5!

Send a free Fax or Email from the ASA online action center on Tuesday.

Follow up with a toll-free phone call to 877 696 6775.

Tell Tommy Thomson, the head of HHS:
*Marijuana does have a currently accepted use in medical treatment.

* Please remember that the health and safety of people who benefit from the medical use of Marijuana is in your hands.
WHY HHS? To ensure safe access for ALL patients, Marijuana must be rescheduled, and its medicinal value recognized on the federal level. Health and Human Services (HHS) has the power to make this change. If HSS allows that Marijuana has medical value, the DEA must recommend rescheduling.

However, in 2001, HHS ruled that Marijuana had, "No currently accepted medical use in treatment." They did not address the mountain of data recognizing cannabis as a useful treatment. This allowed the DEA to reject rescheduling and gave them implicit permission to raid patients.

Six months later, the DEA started raiding and closing California dispensaries. Our highest health officials can stop this abuse simply by doing their job and applying sound science to this policy debate.

Reschedule Marijuana now!

[zombienote: OK...you heard the lady. Here's a chance for us all to collectively make an impact on one day. Let's stay on this all day Tuesday!]

I don't have the appropriate address...

Health and Human Services
Mr. Tommy Thompson



It is my understanding that in 2001, Health and Human Services ruled that Marijuana has "No currently accepted medical use in treatment."

If this is true than why have 9 states legalized the medical use of Marijuana and why has the US government been supplying Marijuana to medical patients for 22 years? The US government is still currently supplying the remaining 7 patients with medical Marijuana every month. These actions of the government to supply 7 patients with Marijuana contradicts the statement that Marijuana has no medicinal value. The government has already accepted Marijuana's medicinal value or they wouldn't have been supplying it to patients.

The research has already been done. It is time to stop ignoring it and admit that Marijuana has medicinal value so that more than 7 people can use it without fear of Federal prosecution.

To ensure safe access for ALL patients, Marijuana must be rescheduled, and its medicinal value recognized on the federal level. Health and Human Services (HHS) has the power to make this change. If HHS allows that Marijuana has medical value, the DEA must recommend rescheduling.

There are millions of Americans suffering from chronic pain and many other ailments that could benefit from this medicine. The time to reschedule Marijuana is now. It is time for Health and Human Services to stop the lies and to do the right thing and allow that Marijuana has medicinal value.

Sincerely,

(one fed up Canadian neighbor)

Thanks Doc! I like to put the address at the top of an email when I send it. No point in my snail mailing it, it would be lucky to get there by Christmas.

HELLO?! Do any AMERICANS have anything to say to Health and Human Services? I hope one lone Canadian letter isn't going to be the only letter posted here.

Even if you're too shy to post your letter here, at least let us know if you sent one or called.

C'mon Americans! Where's your patriotism? Stand up for your rights while you can! Bombard these people with your opinions! Don't get caught at a time when you can do something.
